Ok just got symantec client security... Anyways the install went fine and everything appeared to be working. The firewall works but the av software won't start a scan.
[Symantec Antivirus 10]
When I try to run a quick scan or full scan with the anti virus I get the following error msg "Could not start scan. Scan engine returned error 0x2"
NE help appreciated thx - Aaron

Hmmm no other error codes.... It's okay tho just got zone pro much happier although it is messed up that a $350 product won't work and the error code doesn't have any solutions. Thx for trying neways. I'm gonna try it out server mode at work and see if it works on a different machine. I'll respond if it doesn't work again.

I am having the same problem. I get the error:
"Could not start scan. Scan engine returned error 0x2."
This is really annoying.
Is there any help that is more recently come to light on this problem?

W2K server: Restarting the server solved the problem for me. I had my admin account locked out for no reason immediately before this problem occurred. Perhaps that's a clue.

1. Right click on 'My Computer' and select 'Manage.'
2. Select Services and Applications->Services.
3. Right click Symantec Antivirus (in the services list) and select
'Stop.'
4. After the service stops, right click Symantec Antivirus again and
select 'Start.'

I`ve experienced the same problem: "symantec antivirus could not start scan. Scan engine returned error 0x2".
Re-installing SAV didn`t fix the problem. SAV started to work after going to Control Panel--> Add or remove programs--> Select Symantec --> Change --> Repair.
Hope this helps you!!
