Norton AV 2001 + popen + WinMe = crash

[Kirby Urner]

Wondered if others have this problem:  when I try any of the popens 
in the os module, and leave NAV 2001 enabled, I get various freeze,
VxD or other errors necessitating hard boot.  

Disabling NAV 2001 ends the problem i.e. popen variants work as 
advertized (to the extent of my testing anyway).  Running Python 2.1.1.
