Answer 3

You access your Control Panel in Windows, select Add/Remove Programs, and then find the Symantec or Norton Internet Security selection in the list. You then select it, and then select the option to Remove, uninstall, or delete (it's a button that should appear on the right-hand side of the selection).

Once this is complete, the computer may require a reboot. Do so, the install 2006.

You should ALWAYS use Add/Remove Programs to uninstall/delete programs loaded on your computer - it helps get rid of the registry hooks.

Answer 4

In the Norton folder in your START menu, you should see the UNINSTALL. If that does not work, open your CONTROL panel, and use ADD/REMOVE Programs. Look for it in that list.

If that still does now work, then go to http://www.symantec.com and type " Removing Norton Antivirus 2005 " in the search box and look for the the article "Error: "Norton AntiVirus 2005 uninstallation has failed..." when uninstalling using Windows Add/Remove Programs"

After this is successful, then REBOOT your computer TWICE. Yes, I said TWO TIMES.
