I cannot duplicate your problem. I used regedt32 and found the Symantec live update key quickly, and reviewed the security permissions on it. Are you logging on as administrator, or perhaps as a user who doesn't have permissions to that key?

Norton AV Corp. Ed. v.7.5 Users logged on as "User" on W2K cannot run Live Update. The Article on Symantec's website says to sedt security on a registry key to fix the problem. The HKLM/Software/Symantec/LiveUpdate key only exists in Regedit, not Regedt32. Therefore, I can't set permissions on it. The problem is with LiveUpdate. The user gets told: "LiveUpdate could not access a file LiveUpdate could not read or write a file it needed because you do not have sufficient access rights. You need to have full rights to the per machine directory in the Windows install folder and full rights to the Symantec product you are updating." I get this even if I give the user "Full Control" through NTFS to the entire drive. It has to be a registry fix I'm guessing.
