Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Norton has a habit of being so good that it interferes with some normal activities. Should you wish to uninstall a Norton product and if at all possible, download and run the Norton Removal Tool. Soon as the Norton Product is un-installed, remove the remaining Symantec folders in Common Shared folders. Thereafter, pls follow below procedures:

1. On the Windows taskbar, click Start > Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer.
2. Delete the program installation folders for all Symantec program that were installed.
3. If you accepted the defaults, the installation folders will be in C:Program Files and will have the name of the program that you installed.

Below listed are the default program folder names and locations listed by program:

• C:Program FilesNorton Internet Security
• C:Program FilesNorton SystemWorks

It would help to configure Windows to show all files.

• Click on "Windows Key" and select Control Panel
• Double click on Folder options.
• Click on View Tab
• Un-check "Hide file extensions for known file types."
• Under the "Hidden files" folder, click "Show hidden files and folders."
• Click on Apply
• Click on OK.

Having performed the above, search for and delete all Symantec folders.

1. Click on "Windows Key" and select Computer.
2. Double click on C Drive
3. Go to the following locations and delete the following folders.

• c:Program FilesNorton Internet Security
• c:Program FilesCommon FilesSymantec Shared
• C:ProgramDataSymantec

and delete all the 3 folders.

Finish by cleaning up the Registry:

CAUTION: you must back up the registry before you make any changes to it. Incorrect changes to the registry can result in permanent data loss or corrupted files. Modify only the keys that are specified.

• Click Start and then Run.
• Type REGEDIT into the Run dialog box when it comes up and then click OK.
• The Registry Editor will open.
• Navigate to and select the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARESymantec

• Navigate to and select the following key:

The best way to get rid of stubborn software is to boot into safe mode and then uninstall it.  This way it is not being used and can be uninstalled.  Reboot your computer and after the beep starting hitting F8.  When a boot menu appears, select Safe Mode (no networking).  Once the system boots up, it may look a bit different.  Go to Add/Remove Software and remove all Norton products.  When it is done, reboot normally and you should be good to go.  

Start Norton Internet Security or Norton Personal Firewall. 2 In the left pane, click Status & Settings. 3 In the right pane, click Security. 4 Click Turn Off.And try to connect ...Good luck..

Have yougone to add remove programs toremove norton? it should allow you to take it off that way. you might try it and see if that helps or not. if you had reboot disks you could restart the whole system and start it over again.

You can just uninstall the Norton Antivirus Folder in program files
and reboot the PC. But you will need to get antother antivirus then.
Then you send file to E it will place the copy of the file you sending where.
Good Luck

Just uninstall the program if u dont want it.go to control panel-then add/remove programs -then scroll for this norton and click remove.thanks.
