Usually back when i had Norton like 5 years ago, usually what i do is go in safe mode by pressing f8 when you boot the computer, and uninstall from there. Usually when i try to get rid of Norton, my OS goes with it.

Ok, heres the deal with Norton:



Norton takes up lost of ram while running and unless you constantly download or share files, you probably do not need a program that is running constantly such as Norton. If you feel that you do need Norton, uninstall it and buy the Norton Internet Security Package. This will not take up as much ram and is much cheaper.



An alternative for Norton is AdAware SE Personal. This is great for people who use their computers to do basic tasks. It does not run unless launched and therefore does not constantly take up ram.
