Have you tried looking on www.download.com for a program remover? The only other way is to try to stop the Norton processes manually in Task manager. Manually delete the folder out of windows with all the programs. And then get a hold of Windows powertoys 'winui' to remove the entry out of add/remove. Also you will need to hunt down any registry entries in regedit.

Try removing it in safe mode.

Boot up win xp and press F8 or is it F5, anyway press one and you should get the boot menu. Select safe mode, then when booted try to uninstall it.

Had a similair problem with Macafee and did this to remove it.
