Error: "LU1814: LiveUpdate could not retrieve the update list"

I clicked on the link and it says that it might be my firewall, I use Zone Alarm, but nothing seems to be wrong and this is the 1st time that I have encounter this problem with liveupdate.

I also tried to download the latestVirus Definitions from Norton's Website, followed all the steps and when it goes to the page that says "downloading latest virus definitions, this may take 15 minutes" I get another error message that says "Your computers has been haltred" (something like that) and I have to click on the option that says "Stop running this script (recommended)"

I ran ad-adware SE and Spybot and they can't find anything. Also made a full system scan with Norton and didn't find anything.

Anyone can help me out on this one? :blink: I'm computer challenged, please be nice :P

i Just recently uninstalled norton on my folks' PC because it kept fucking with my wireless internet...it was saying that Norton detected a worm and has blocked the Process. I researched it and it was comming from my Wireless router...so basically it was blocking my own computers ip or the routers ip and disableing my internet...which then disables any connection, Like the connection to my laptop.
I researched the shit and got fed up with it and uninstalled norton and now use mcaffe and a variaty of other scanning shit.
