My Norton Internet 2003 failed to load recently.
Since then I could neither install nor de-install the product.
Now other Antivirus like Trend Micro fails to install indicating presence of Norton. As a last option I am going to format and reinstall XP.
However just wanted to know if there's any workaround.

Thanks,

is it NIS or NIS? go to www.symantec.com/autotools, if it is NIS then u need 1, if it is NAV u need 4... then check my post *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=519031&postcount=7 to remove major traces left behind that trend micro has problems with. Honestly I wouldn't install trend micro, would rather have norton (even though I hate Norton with a passion) every one here seems to like kaspery DO a search for AV (Please oh please don't start another thread about which AV is best)
