It took me most of a day to remove norton from my PC - it was terrible

Removed nearly 100 registry entries

Norton is such a pain to reove, Symantec have a removal tool on their web site for download - use this if normal removal methods fail (as they usually do!)

Simply because it "hooks" deeply into registry etc.  When its working ok its good but slows pc on boot up and when running.

2 comapnies seem to have the ability to buy up other half decent products and ruin them - Symantec and Veritas.  Now they are one and the same company, God help us!

My thoughts exactly. It's not exactly hard to keep a track of what you've mullered in the registry so the uninstaller can reverse it - if you can be bothered.
