This hub will be a short one but it will provide you every step I used to completely remove Norton from my computer. (It has A LOT of bugs, but I would not recommend running with no protection either! I use AVG Free and it works great.)

1. Close down everything you have running

2. Go to Start

3. Control Panel.

4. Add/Remove Programs

5. Click on Norton.

6. Click Remove and run Uninstal.

7. Check the list on Add/Remove Programs for any other Norton Programs.

8. If there are any follow 6 and 7 again.

9. Close Add/Remove Programs.

10. Click Start.

11. Click Search Computer.

12. Select whole computer and type in Norton.

13. If any show up highlight and right click to delete.

14. Delete any you can find.

15. Reboot your computer and they should be gone.

Hope this helps!
