I'm surprised that there have been no answers to your post, since you first made it. Where's that Norton expert when you need him?
Well, Norton does produce one very excellent program.
I rely on it and use it quite often.
It's called the "Norton Removal Tool".
It's also updated often to keep it current.
Yes, you should always use the Windows Add/Remove applet first to at least attempt to let Windows Uninstall Norton.
Even if that action succeeds, it's still a good idea to run the "Norton Removal Tool". Then in Windows Explorer look under \Program Files\ for any Symantec folders left over from the previous operations.
The "Norton Removal Tool" is the one Norton product that I use most and rely on heavily in my computer business.
Try it.....you'll like it!
You can download the NRT from
Here!
Be sure to download the proper version for your Operating System.
* Windows Uninstall of Norton will fail if you're in SAFE mode.
Good Luck and Happy Computing,
The Doctor
