shell on AMD ok. Norton culpable

[Jim Funderburk]

I thought I should post that the problem I had reported
on being unable to get M-x shell to work on an upgraded
AMD processor computer has been solved.

The dealer had installed Norton 2000 antivirus, and
when I disabled this,  M-x shell began working like
it should.  A subsequent inquiry to the dealer said that
some of his customers have had to also disable
the 'autoprotect' feature of Norton antivirus to get some
DOS-based programs to work.

Jeff Dwork, who works for AMD, sent me an E-mail
that he uses M-x shell successfully on AMD computers,
and this gave me the right push to discover the Norton
problem.

Is this conflict already known and mentioned somewhere
in the EMACS literature?
