Norton Utilities Issue...

I recently re-installed XP on one of my machines, and while everything seems fine, Norton Protection (the "Protected Recycle Bin") will not automatically start with Windows, nor am I able to start it manually.

The exact issue is outlined <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://service1.symantec.com/support/nsw.nsf/ba62122e5d142a6588256d87006b22be/8ba5198f8168af1985256e24004e239d?OpenDocument&prod=Norton%20Utilities& ver=for%20Norton%20SystemWorks%2020
04&src=sg&pcode=nu&svy=&csm=no">here</a>, but their soultions do not work. The service is already set to "Automatic", and I have checked the Boot.ini. The only way that I am able to enable the service is to either stop then start it, or restart it. I've tried setting it to restart if there is a service failure, but since there is no "failure" (the service appears to be running, though it doesn't work) it does not try to restart. I have also tried un-and re-installing SystemWorks completely. (I only have AntiVirus, Utilities, and Ghost installed)

Any ideas? I'm thinking that perhaps the order in which I installed things might be the cause (like, certain drivers or other programs that were installed before SystemWorks are conflicting), since this was not an issue before the re-installation. I really would like to avoid having to manually restart the service every time I turn on the computer...
