I’d forgotten that most new PC’s come installed with Norton Anti-virus software. If you’ve read my past posts, you know my hate affair with Norton. I knew from past experience that I had to go to the Norton website and get their removal tool.
But first I decided to check the control panel and was surprised to see that the program was listed and could be removed there. It could be because it was a trial version and I hadn’t paid for it. No matter what the reason, I was glad it was so easy to delete.
I did go to the Norton website to see if anything about the 2007 version was mentioned. The site has a download for their removal tool if you have Norton Anti-virus software from 2003-2006. There is also a note about removing the 2007 version, with instructions about saving the product key and then downloading the removal tool.
So save that product key and when you can’t stand Norton anymore, go download the removal tool. And don’t bother trying to contact the company, unless you enjoy wasting your time.
