[cvsnt] Running Norton Anti-Virus On the CVSNT Server

Starting with "Release 63", there is a screen in the CVSNT installer warning
that using the 'Filesystem Realtime Protection' feature that is a part of
Symantec's Norton Antivirus may lead to irrevocable corruption of the
repository.

Could I get some more detail on this possibility? Is turning it off the only
way to prevent this from occurring, or is it possible to leave Filesystem
Realtime Protection (FRP) on, but exclude the location of the CVS Repository
from the FRP's "protection"?

Thanks,
Don Gates
