"I hate NORTON everything..that POS" i've used symantec software products everyday since 1997, and i can safely say that i wouldn't want to even think about operating a computer without norton systemworks installed, and i wouldn't want to spend a minute online without norton antivirus protecting my files. :)

I agree with you 100%!! I installed NortonSystemWorks on the advice of a trusted tech guru friend of mine. I know he meant well as he had tested it before on his computers and loved it. I had nothing but problems on my computer for about two days till I finally brought it back to the store in total disgust. For whatever reason System Works was making my computer crash constantly ---- those pop windows were also driving me insane. If you are unable to install it completely, an uninstaller should work. I didn't need one which was the only good thing about that particular computer experience. ou :^)

I hate NORTON everything..that POS..I can't even totally uninstall the crap I think we all have run into a piece of software that others swear by that didn't turn out so good for us. Things happen during the install that shouldn't have or a piece of the program gets corrupted for some unknown reason. Could be that your system had some problems before the install of Norton and it can't run like it was intended to. Could be a million different things that went wrong. Like mark, I too swore by Norton until I got XP. It's so trouble free I don't feel that I need it any longer. tc :-)

My 2 cents , the problem i have is with ,"Norton System works" when using scan disk and defrag , great products , but my feeling is that Windows and Norton just don't get along , each have their own way of doing these tasks . My dell came with Norton pre-installed along with ME . I would have to run both programs , scan disk in ME and scan disk in Norton , Norton wouldn't find errors and ME would ,next time I run the programs and just the opposite would happen Norton would find problems and ME come up nothing. I was always using Scan disk in Norton until one day I came across a window saying , the last time I used scan disk was *** # of days ago ,???????? I knew I just finished using Norton , why was I getting this message , so I ran scan disk in ME , and got errors and fixed automatically. So I stayed with windows scan disk , and deleted Norton system works I never got a Norton CD with my system from DELL, I wanted to give it another try .
