    Interesting. I wish I knew why this seems to happen with Norton because the
    Symantec installer should be smart enough to disable the Windows firewall.

    Go ahead and disable the Windows Firewall and try updating. If that works,
    would you please let me know? You can contact me off the newsgroup by going
    to my blog () and clicking the Contact
    link.

    To disable the Windows Firewall do this:
    1. Open the Control Panel
    2. Open the Windows Firewall control panel
    3. Click "Change settings."
    4. Accept the elevation prompt
    5. Check the "Off (not recommended)" radio button.
    6. Click OK.

    Now try updating Defender. Please let me know if this works. I would tell
    you how to disable the Norton firewall, but I do not have it, so I do not
    know.

    Norton is likely causing your problem.
    Replace Norton with the free AVG or Avast
    , and Windows Firewall and Windows
    Defender. Disabling Norton is not enough. You need to completely uninstall
    it. If it doesn't solve the problem, get rid of Norton anyway. Norton is
    known to cause many problems which don’t always appear immediately.

    Download and run the Norton Removal Tool.

    It's called "360" because Symantec's goal is complete ownership of your
    computer, and with even less communication about what it's trying to do or
    ways to configure it than ever before (which would only interfere with its
    goal.) That, along with Symantec's famous technical support, makes Norton
    360 a disaster that I would only install on Granny's computer if she was
    going to disinherit me.

    I thought it was called 360 because that's the number of days you'll be
    unable to use your computer the way you want it to this year.
