I have a Hewlett Packard laptop (Pavilion zd8000) computer, and I need to
re-install the Media Center Extender software to make it "talk" to my XBox
(not the Xbox 360). During the installation progress on my laptop, I got a
message stating that Norton Anti-Virus was installed and that is preventing
me from continuing setup. I have Norton AntiVirus 2005 installed (which
includesInternet Worm Protection). How can I get the Media Center Extender
to find my XBox (wireless connection) ... also getting around the Norton
stuff (without disabling Norton)?

Many programs seem to require that antivirus be disabled during the install.
Try that, then once its installed you can turn on the antivirus again...

Thanks for your reply. This worked! I had also forgotten that since I have
a wireless network, I also needed to update my XBox wireless settings since I
had recently switched from 64-bit encryption to 128-bit encryption.
