Thumbs down Schedule problem

I noticed that none of my Norton stuff in the task scheduler was working.

If I click on properities it first shows me a message showing a string of mainly zero's and that the 'object was already created', then opens the properties page.

I deleted all the tasks and tried to start a new one for Norton Antivirus. It accepts all my input up to the last page and when I click OK it gives me a message saying it probably won't work due to...see above. It doesn't work. As a test, I tried it with Paint - same result.

Setting the defrag schedule from within Norton works.

What's wrong with my Scheduled Tasks?

Thanks

Do you have a password on your user account?

If you do not, Scheduled Tasks will not run unless you hack the registry to let it.
