Hi kingstonkayaker,
This is Mike from the Norton Authorized Support Team.
What version of Windows Vista are you using?
First, make sure that you are using Norton 360 version 3.0. If by chance you are using version 2.0, and your subscription is valid, you are entitled to a free update to version 3, which is highly encouraged. To update to version 3.0, make note of your current Activation Key and then visit the Norton Update Center at the link below.
Norton 360 3.0 Update Center
If you are using Norton 360 version 3.0, open the application, select the "Settings" link at the top of the window and make sure there is a check in the box next to "Antiphishing." If the box is checked and you are still experiencing the problem, then go back to the main Norton 360 screen, mouse-over the "PC Security" bubble and choose "Check for Updates," possibly multiple times, until it informs you that there are no more updates available.
After all of the updates have been applied, perform a "Comprehensive System Scan" with Norton 360 to check for threats.
Let me know if you still have a problem with the Phishing protection.
Thanks,
Mike
