    On May 29th I received a popup notification from SAV:

     

    SYMANTEC TAMPER PROTECTION ALERT

     

    Target:  C:\Program Files\Symantec\LiveUpdate\LuComServer_3_4.EXE
    Event Info:  Terminate Process
    Action Taken:  Blocked
    Actor Process:  C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe (PID 588)

    After a full scan no risks were detected and I thought that was the end of the problem.  On June 30th SAV CE 10.1.6.6000 gave a notification that the virus definitions had not been updated for more than 30 days.  I checked and tried to do a manual update, but I kept getting an error message, LU1814, that SAV couldn't connect to the server to update.  I reinstalled LiveUpdate and SAV was updating automatically and everything seemed fine.  Tonight I received the same SAV Notification popup:

     

    SYMANTEC TAMPER PROTECTION ALERT

     

    Target:  C:\Program Files\Symantec\LiveUpdate\LuComServer_3_4.EXE
    Event Info:  Terminate Process
    Action Taken:  Blocked
    Actor Process:  C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe (PID 612)

     What is going on and how do I rid my PC of this problem?
