If for some reason, the normal uninstall does not remove it, I recommend following the automatic uninstall instructions below to remove any leftover Symantec or Norton security products.
Removing Norton Automatically

Norton has created an automatic removal program to remove the following software products when the normal removal methods fail.

Yes sometimes Norton does not uninstall. But first you should try uninstalling by "Add or Remove Programs" in control Panel. If it doesn't works go to window explorer and delete folder of Norton anti virus

well, yes it is, just go to add or remove programs in the control panel and remove anything that says Norton. Maybe ur just removing the shortcut? Restart ur computer and check to make sure its gone, it should be! Install a new security software straight after, dont leave ur computer exposed!

If you are tired of the system problems caused by the Norton Internet Security tool or after your one day trial you are still not ready to buy the product, then you may want to uninstall the product from your system. There are two main methods that you can use to uninstall the tool, either by using the Control Panel or by using the Norton uninstall tool.

To uninstall by using the Control Panel on your Windows XP computer, follow the steps listed below:

1. Open the Start menu, and then select Control Panel.
2. Select the Add or Remove Programs option.
3. In the Currently installed programs list, select the Norton Internet Security (Symantec Corporation) option.
4. Select Remove and then select Remove All.
5. Go through the Subscription Period Warning, and then select Next to continue with the uninstallation process.
6. Follow the screen instructions to complete the uninstallation process, and finally restart your PC to complete the process.

If you are unable to uninstall using the Control Panel, then you can download Norton uninstaller tools from the Symantec website and run it on your computer to remove the Norton Internet Security tool.

To start the download of Norton Removal tool for your product, first
http://service1.symante c.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/do cid/2005033108162039?Open&doci d=2006082913223736&nsf=nip.nsf &view=docid&pid=20060829132237 36&pkb=nip

Here, select the Norton product version that is installed on your computer. Next, follow the instructions given for your specific product to remove the Norton Internet Security tool.

Note: As recommended on this website, if you are using ACT! or WinFAX, then backup their databases, before proceeding with the uninstallation process.

Although useful, one of the main disadvantages of many Norton products is that they consume a lot of system resources and clutter your registry with hundreds of entries. If you are facing any problems, you can remove the software by using the Control Panel or by using the Norton Removal tool. Whichever method you use, it is a good idea to perform a registry scan, either manually, or by using a registry cleaner, to remove any left over Norton entries within the registry. Because the manual method is quite tedious and has a higher chance for errors, it is always better to opt for a good and efficient http://www.instant-registry-fi xes.org/go/regcure_site/
tool to do the job.
