I've called Comast 3 times and Symantec twice and they just keep passing me off to other people. any of you guys have any idea whats going on? I really think I need to figure out how to delete norton internet security. Control Panel > Add remove programs > remove norton internet security ... isn't working.

My sense is that you should renew your virus protection service. I know it costs some change, but I'm not fond of leaving my CPU open to the newest worms and stuff.

I'm no computer expert though, so maybe somebody else can offer suggestions for how to take care of the problem without renewing.

Finally got the norton completely removed. things are better now. Currently running AVG virus protection.

I know that at least cpayne, That Guy and I are pretty into the tech stuff, so I'll differ to them if I'm wrong, but there are FAR better free options to Norton out there.
