Dave, do you mean WinDoctor?
I first had this with Norton 2000 but they discontinued it somewhere along
the way.
A friend send me WinDoctor from Norton 2002 & it works fine on my XP home
edition.
I don't care for Norton AntiVirus so I don't buy it anymore.
I also like WinDoctor because we can run it from the cd without installing
Norton.
