| Andy,
|
| Remember what I said about Services. Sometimes there's more than one
| service to turn off before everything can be uninstalled.
|
| I remember that much from a while back now but, not using Vista and being
| uncertain about which services Norton actually uses to run, I can't advise
| you further.
|
| Cheers and all the best.
