Although I was running NT, I experienced the same sort of trouble with

may delete all of the Norton specific registry entries, unless you are still
running some other Norton product.
Recognize that there are entries in the registry that refer to programs but
may not be obvious. You need to do a search (F3 or control-F key) in regedit
to located all data references to Norton and Symantec. There will likely be
CLSID keys with such references. Those will need to be deleted as well. Do
be careful though.
In my case, I never did find where in the registry the ghost was coming
from, but a complete reinstall, uninstall and a yet another install fixed my
particular problem.
Good luck.
