Norton Antivirus will not scan

For the first two days the NAV 2004 was installed, I was able to scan without a glitch -- but now nothing happens (same applies to the right-click > "Scan with Norton Antivirus"). However, although nothing happens, you can see that navw32.exe appears in the Task Manager each time the scan has been initiated. Another weird thing is that in the temp folder, so-called scan file(s) accumulate (with a name, scan0, scan1,scan2...). Hence, it seems like the navw32.exe is triggered, but somehow gets stalled in the process. I wasn't able to come up with a solution after having Googled on this problem. Has anyone experienced the same fate? Might I add that I have reinstalled NAV 2004, but the problem remains. :rolleyes:
