[aprssig] Kenwood D700 Software

[Charles Doughtie]

I bought a 10 device disk. This is about #5 I have installed Norton on. I had the Kenwood program on another laptop that crashed and it ran fine - with Norton. I have an inquiry in to Norton, will try to remember and advise.
 I am expecting a refurb to replace my carry laptop and have a complimentary copy of Kaspercy (sp?) - I may try it when it arrives.

I've heard people complain of false positives with Norton.
I use it at work but not at home; I have seen some downloads quarantined but nothing I really needed.
If you have another PC without Norton you could try that.
PS Out of curiosity, is it an ISP version of Norton, from a store etc?

When I download it, Norton "examines" it, then gives me a red message that it is unsafe and has been removed - too fast for a screen shot.  Not sure I want to set an exception - - -

Charlie, are you saying that Norton deletes/quarantines it before you can install?  Can you set an exception?
Are you getting a "smart-screen warning" from Windows itself? (not sure if MS calls it that in 7).  These can be overridden.
I can tell you that I've installed the program on 3-4 different PCs, using the installer from the Kenwood site, without problems of installation or use that I am aware of.

My Norton watchdog condemns Kenwood's programming software as unsafe. I had no problems in the past, but cannot install it on a replacement Windows 7 computer. Anyone had such an experience?
