The guys who write that heap of doo-doo should be executed. Slowly. In front of an audience. Rant over....

Remove Norton Tool

EDIT: Is this the free Norton scanner that gets installed with certain free games and apps? Hijack this is best for getting rid of that.

Run pc in safe mode and uninstall the programme. It should work.

@cyco, how do i tell which version it is


you mean they deliberately made it so it cant be removed?!

Posted by Cycovision
No, you can get rid of it...

Is it in your startup folder? Or in msconfig? There's a free one going about, I nearly installed the bloody thing by accident the other day. I think it comes with flash or shockwave player but I can't remember.

its not in my startup folder (i only have post-it notes in startup folder)


every day it decides its going to do a scan at 3pm :S

Well, next time it comes up try to find out which version it is. Then download the relevant removal tool from the link I gave you earlier.

If there isn't one, we might be able to get rid of it using hijack this.
