I have norton 2000/2001, not sure. Also have norton 2005. Both installed on computer. Problem is that the startup pulls from both (or something like that) and cannot receive complete updates. I have gone into the add/delete icon and have checked out other answers here. Alot of norton stuf comes up when I file search, but there is no way to tell which files are fron the original install verses the 2005 version. I don't want to delete the wrong one. Any ideas would be great!! HELP....

I've been helping my cousin set up her new laptop before she heads out to college. She bought a Toshiba laptop from Best Buy. The salesman recommended she install PC-Cillin as virus protection. As we were setting up the computer we realized that McAfee virus software was factory installed on the computer. In order to install PC-Cillin we must uninstall McAfee. My question is which is better? Was the salesman simply trying to upsell or is PC-Cillin a better program? Will uninstalling McAfee result in voiding any warranties? Thanks!

I know that there is a viruse on my computer. My Task Manager along with my Charter Anti-Virus will not run. Task Manager said that it has been disabled by the Andministrator, but I went into the Services screen and it shows that it is running. Charter will open, but will not scan for viruses. I tried to download Norton Anti-Virus free trial from Yahoo, and it came up with an error that it cannot be connected to the internet. There is also a box from F-Secure that keeps coming up and giving me names of different folders, saying that there is a Trojan, but the file has been renamed. I don't know what to do! Please help!
