Network Access After Norton Anti-Virus Install

Network Access After Norton Anti-Virus Install

Sometimes you can't access a WinXP computer after installing Norton Anti-Virus.
This is because there might be a variety of errors at the other computer depending on the operating system. On the XP computer, in the Event Viewer / System log, there will be the following error:

The server's configuration parameter "irpstacksize" is too small for the server to use a local device. To fix this do the following steps.

Open Registry Editor

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters

Now edit the "IRPStackSize" and enter the value as 15. Reboot the computer.
