Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Symantic?
In my experience, if anything actually goes wrong it ties itself into knots.

In some cases the only way I've been able to clean up a machine was to uninstall Symantic first. That has taken as long as half an hour because it had the computer all tied up jacking itself off.
New Yeah...
A couple of years ago I had to try to install a newer version of SAV because of some vulnerability. I think it took me about a week to get the old one uninstalled, so that I could install the new one....

:-/

Cheers,
Scott.
New Part of my toolkit is . . .
. . a cleanup utility from Symantec that cleans out all the leftover stuff, clears the registry and finishes failed uninstalls. Almost every Symantic uninstall fails at least in part.
