Hi Graham,
I'm mostly concerned with stopping Norton from interfering with and deleting files that I have consciously chosen to download and/or install. I've never really given any thought to what happens if I'm logged off so I didn't bother to change the "while I'm away" setting.

The "Enable Boot Time Protection" is switched off by default and I figured (right or wrong) that enabling it would only slow down my boot up time.

I'm afraid I have to disagree with your comments. How hard would it be for the software to ask the user before blindly deleting genuine software installation files? That's all that is required and should be the default behaviour.
