Have you tried booting in Safe Mode, logging in to an admin account and seeing what you can do from there?\nAnd did you download from the official Norton site? If you've paid for the software then you're entitled to support!

If ur not able to uninstall the norton through add/remove programs..then u can call up norton and install an uninstall manager which can do the  trick.\nNAV 800 927-3991 $29.95 per incident \nNorton Internet Security 877 832-2810 $29.95 per incident \nAnti-Spam 888 681-1964 \n\nregarding cache files....thats the cookies and temp files... Make sure u delete them and check the  privacy setting...it should not be high...otherwise it will reject cookies.

Be grateful that it isn't. Norton's is a big cpu hog! I quit using Norton's  quite some time ago and switched to avg free and comodo firewall...also free both are great products and protect you far better than Norton's ever will.\n\nhttp://www.grisoft.com\n\nhttp://www.comodo.com

Question: did you get Norton 2006 legally or pirated? If you pirated it, get rid of it and find another antivirus. There are a few free antiviruses out there.\n\nAVG-http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1\nAvast-http://www.avast.com

Norton eliminates it.  Download the recent defs and run a full system scan.

I am serious when I say that your next task should be to uninstall Norton completely and install either AVG or Avast for free.\n\nNorton just has too much going on and tries to literally take control of your computer. It will run very slow.\n\npersonally, I prefer Avast. It also helps to stay under the radar, as many attempts at going around Norton are out there. The updates to the virus definitions are daily.

I had the same problem, turned out my Norton was blocking it, try checking your security settings.

My mum had Norton, there was a similar problem.  I contacted their tech support but after several attempts, they could not resolve it.  You could try their tech support too, but you may find you need to reinstall.  In my mothers case even after reinstalling there were problems, it was very frustrating.  As a result I won't use Norton, I use McAfee, windows doesn't seem to be slowed down so much.  A few guys at work use Grisoft AVG and they have had no problems at all, they think it's excellent, plus it's free!

First of all completely uninstall Norton, then download AVG free from the following link, update it and scan your computer:\nhttp://www.download.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10596553.html?tag=lst-0-1\n\nYou must also get an anti-spyware. SpyBot is the best among the free ones. Get it, update and scan the system again:\n http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/spy...\n\nFor prevention of intrusion into your system, use a firewall. ZoneAlarm is the best among the free ones:\nhttp://www.majorgeeks.com/ZoneAlarm_Free_d388.html
