Norton got back to me this AM. They had me unblock my block all programs but that was not the problem .Then they had me disable each component (security, personal firewall, intrusion, ect. ect..Problem appears to be with the security component . When disabled , the object moved error went away.
Sent my findings back to Norton. Am waiting for a reply.

I think you said you have SP2. Try their firewall and see if the Object Moved error goes away.
That's what I did and it did go away. I still want to use the Norton product cause every thing considered it's a better firewall.

Still working on it. Probably should install another firewall but I'm stubborn.

lefty238,

I take it Symantec hasn't gotten back to you. I don't think they know the answer yet. Please let us know if you find a solution. I didn't reinstall MSN since I don't think that's the problem.

They got back to me a couple of times but you are right they don't have a fix as of yet.

Hello:

First time poster ... I have this "Object Moved." problem as well.  I am also on a DSL (Verizon), have Norton Personal Firewall, and am using MSN Explorer.  Sounds like some common threads!

I think I tried disabling the Firewall and it didn't help.  Worked with Verizon customer support ... no help.  Emailed Dell customer support for help. 

Would sure like an answer.  Just wanted to add my data to the equation.

I'll go back and turn off the Norton Firewall and turn on the XP firewall and see if that helps.

Ciao.

i think your right about the problem being more  prevalent
 . for sure we are not an isolated group. i have a 8300  . oh yeah , i also think the problems with norton not msn..

just got a message from norton. (sun. pm ) tried a whole bunch of stuff that they suggested and still have the problem.  i don't get the error message all the time but get it enough to be aggravating. let me know if the chage to windows firewall helps.

I don't know. I just disabled the firewall and SystemWorks and didn't get the error. I restarted SystemWorks and still didn't get the error. I started the firewall and got the error. Just for the record I have Adelphia cable and MSN9. I think I'll remove MSN and then reinstall it just to cover that base. The problem may be more prevalent then it seems. Since it actually doesn't show up as an error others might just consider it normal. What model Dell do you guys have? The reason I ask is that I had a problem with removing Dell Support Alerts a few weeks ago. This problem only seemed to be with the 8200/8250 series. I have a 8250. I finally did solve this on my own and hopefully we can find a solution to this one.

hey delta, one of your posts helped me clear my browser. TY.  the object problem only occurs
 when i try to access sites from my msn address list. so now that it's cleared ,i'm going to start anew. object problem does not occur when i access from web site icon directly from desktop.

Norton  suggested that I remove and reinstall  IE and do the  same for WindowsScript Host. Don't think I will .To much of a hassel with SP2 and all. I don't think Norton is sure how to fix object problem.  I have found  if I type in exact address on the address list
 location the problem does not occur . When I type just a name (example : Walmart) I go to a MSN web site and when I click I get the object moved error. Using the SP2 firewall corrects the error also.

Lefty,

I think we have two different problems. I don't have any problems with addresses. I only have a problem with the object moved message when I click on one of the buttons on the top (Calendar, Address Book, People&Chat etc.) and it might happen every fourth or fifth click. Maybe my problem is MSN. I guess I won't know until I reinstall it.

Just tried a few icons on the top and I too got the object moved error. Did not know that was a problem also. Again with norton off and windows firewall on the problem went away. Let us know if the MSN reinstall solves anything.
 
Thanks , Lefty
