Problems with TortoiseSVN 1.7.8/NIS 2012 19.8.0.14

Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1 [64 bit]

I upgraded from TortoiseSVN 1.7.7 [64 bit] to TortoiseSVN 1.7.8 [64 bit] on approx. 8/20/2012 23:11 CDT.

After the next "restart required" Automatic Live Update to Norton Internet Security 2012 19.8.0.14 [64 bit] (update downloaded on my system 8/23/2012 5:21 AM CDT), NIS would no longer complete either Quick or Full System scans. In addition, the Symantec Security Framework began to experience unexpected terminations (leaving my system unprotected). After uninstalling TortoiseSVN 1.7.8 [64 bit] the problems with NIS 2012 have stopped.

Since I didn't notice any problems with TortoiseSVN 1.7.8 and NIS 2012 19.8.0.14 until the Norton Automatic Live Update, I believe that this problem was introduced by the Norton update and am reporting the problem here primarily for information.

I AM CURIOUS why the the Windows Event Log for the the unexpected Norton terminations:

  Faulting application name: ccSvcHst.exe

indicates that the faulting module was associated with TortoiseSVN!

  Faulting module path: TortoiseSVN32.dll
  
[And there is probably a reason why a 64 bit installation of TortoiseSVN 1.7.8 has a TortoiseSVN32.dll ;)]

There are several threads concerning this problem in Norton Internet Security/Norton Antivirus Forum.

I hope that Norton (or somebody :) resolves the problem soon because downgrading to TortoiseSVN 1.7.7 is not a long term solution and I hate to go to the trouble of "dumping" NIS. ;)
