I think that simply using the uninstall programs from the control panel may
not always remove as much of the Norton stuff as you might like. If you go
to www.symantec.com and search for Norton_Removal_Tool.exe, you might have
better results. It might be better to reinstall and then use the removal
tool to uninstall.
In any case, do NOT simply delete files that look like Symantec files, as
this may trash your system. (I trashed mine that way.) I believe that
Norton renames or replaces essential system files and/or folders.
Both Norton and McAfee seem to be nearly impossible to get rid of once you
have installed them. Unfortunately, they are consistently rated the most
effective anti-malware programs, so that if you want the best, there is not
much choice.

Subject: [PCSOFT] Norton problems
I have tried to uninstall Norton Anti-Virus and Firewall but now I am
getting an error message that will not go away. I click ok and then later
it pops up again. The message is
"SymWSC.exe - Unable to Locate Component. This application has failed to
start because cc.Trust.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may
fix the problem."
I don't want to reinstall, I want it gone. LOL.
Have I done something wrong?
