    Try to uninstall and reinstall sep client

    Check this artical

    First, try running a repair on the SEP client.

    You can search for the Lue.log and post that here as well to see if there is anything of relevance in the log file.

    The recommendation would be to reinstall LU but you mentioned you have already tried without success.

    It seems as if something is corrupted. I would try to reinstall SEP/Liveupdate.

    You can follow these articles for doing so:

    Do you use any proxy or firewall in between?

    Check this document to confirm if its been getting blocked by FW.

     

    How to determine whether your firewall is blocking LiveUpdate

    This is typically a Timeout Issue:

    To overcome this issue, change the timeout setting for LiveUpdate to extend the session period.

    1. As per OS, browse to

    Windows 2003: Default location is C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Liveupdate
    Windows 2008: Default location is C:\Programdata\Symantec\Liveupdate.

    2. Open Settings.Liveupdate, find

    PREFERENCES\INTERNET_CONNECT_TIMEOUT=45
    PREFERENCES\INTERNET_READ_DATA_TIMEOUT=45

    Change the default setting of 45 to a larger number, for example 600.

    3. Save Settings.Liveupdate.

    4. Run LiveUpdate to verify success.

     

    It Must work..
