If it's a service that starts automatically it could be the username and password to start it are incorrect in the startup parameters.

If he is using an older version of Nortons (2000/2001) and is using windows xp home then he needs the file sevinst.exe afaik (downloadable from symantec website) . The symevent screws up during its install on winxp systems as far as I can remember...
