After i ran an updated Norton Antivirus 7.0.
It could not scan anymore with the Message that i dont have enough space to run the scan. But there was much space in my local drives.
Further it started showing the error popup that
Tcpsvcs.exe - Applicatioin error
The instruction at "0x701ef1fc" referenced memory on 0x000000d4 . The memory could not be read.
And from there i can ping other machines but cannot be accessible on My Network Places.
Sql7.0 server cannot restart anymore.
Please assist
Thanks in advance

I'm thinking that the "not enough space" message is referring to RAM, not HD space. It sounds like you have a memory leak somewhere. Try leaving the Task Manager open to the running processes tab, then attempting the virus scan again, paying attention to the Mem Usage column. Look for any program whose memory usage is freakishly high, and/or which is continuously increasing. Once you figure out which program is the culprit, look for updates, worksarounds, etc. from Microsoft or the softwaremaker.
