How do you reload Norton's Antivirus if a virus has diabled all functions associated with it? If I uninstall, then I will lose Norton because my system will no longer recognize commands or links associated with the program. I cannot update, my scan is worthless. Is there a way to scan the system without booting the computer?

Boot off the Norton CD and scan from there, or boot into Safe Mode.

So long as the Norton CD is available, you can boot to CD, and run the AV scan from the CD.
Start up, press F12, and you can get the Boot from CD option in the F12 menu

Hi. You may have to try another AV product to scan and eliminated to problem. Free ones include AVG. : http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/ . Do the scan in safe mode.
