Misleading Symantec LiveUpdate Scheduler Error Events

I run XP Home SP2 with Norton Anti-Virus 2004 and Norton
Personal Firewall 2004 (I know, but I'm used to them).
I have an ADSL Internet connection and frequently work
offline. Recently I had to install a new version of
Symantec LiveUpdate (File Version 3.0.0.160). Since then
my System Log has been peppered with irritating error
events generated by Symantec LiveUpdate Scheduler. They
have Event IDs of 101 and Descriptions which read
"Information Level: error Internet connection not
detected."

There is, of course, no Internet connection when I'm
working offline and its absence does not betoken an error
condition. And I don't want to be told about it.

One can set the Event Log Detail Level for Automatic
LiveUpdate in Control Panel. The options are "Info",
"Warning" "Success", "Error" and "Fatal". I've tried
setting the level to "Warning", which I hoped would
suppress "Information Level" messages, but to no effect.
Setting the level to "Fatal" means that, except presumably
when there is a catastrophe, nothing gets logged. Then
one loses the reassurance provided by the the log that
Automatic LiveUpdate is functioning correctly or, indeed,
functioning at all.


I realise that this is a harmless minor irritation but I'd
still be grateful for a resolution. So, please can anyone
suggest a way of stopping these "errors" from being
reported while still allowing significant LiveUpdate
events to be logged?

Fuck the autoupdate rubbish right off and elect to simply run manual
updates. Your system will benefit enormously.
Also, don't be fooled into upgrading to a newer version of Norton, your
system will almost grind to a halt and you'll have to pay some cunt like me
to come and fix it for you.
