    You can go for the latest and the current version of Norton Safety Minder (2.0.0.48) which works fine with Firefox 3.6.8. so try to use this one it will defiantly solve the issue with the Norton safety minder which is not working with new version of Firefox 3.6.8. You can also go to official site to see for more solution and other option to resolve the other issue with Norton Online Family.
