The only confusion was on your part. 4. I said Norton was uninstalled for months before I got Elephant Drive. So the claim that I reinstalled Norton is patently false. (I am not accusing you of being dishonest only desperate to avoid the reality that Norton is a virus.) 5. I only stored image and text files on Elephant Drive. 6. I never ever did any kind of restore from Elephant Drive. 7. I moved image and text files from one computer to another with Elephant Drive that is all. 8. MOST IMPORTANT a file named Norton Ghost was found on a secure part of the Elephant Drive files. Programmers protect certain files so their program will run reliably. I just found out from an engineer at Elephant Drive that there was no legal way a file named Norton Ghost would be found in where it was found. It shouldn’t ever be found in those kinds of Elephant Drive files. The person from Elephant Drive made sure to say he was not accusing Norton of anything only that the file shouldn’t have been there. I’m sure people in the computer business are afraid of Norton (most Norton employees are good hard working, talented people) because those who run Norton are powerful and ruthless.

The likely explanation for your problem is that your earlier removal of Norton Anti Virus and Norton Ghost. was not done in the correct way. This probably meant that the removal tool was not able to work as it should. In this situation one way to proceed would be to reinstall Norton Anti Virus and Norton Ghost and then use the Norton removal tool. Given what you have since tried I would not think this is now a feasible way to proceed. What was the precise version of the Norton product(s) installed? Did you print off and study the instructions before using the Norton removal tool?http://www.symantec.com/norton/suppo...product_ts.jsp The removal of Norton products has for years presented considerable difficulties for the average user so it is not surprising that you encountered difficulties. Many Technical Support staff often have not been fully trained to handle the problems they are asked to resolve. On the other hand they are often trying to help users who have limited computing skills. The technical nature of the issues involved can also cause difficulties when one explains to the other what they are seeing and what has to be done. Reading your latest post tells me that you are capable of confusing whoever is listening to you. This is not intended as a criticism. My feeling is based on seeing how you present information. An example of this is how you say at one point you paid Norton and later you say Norton did not charge! Also the this statement by you is ambiguous "I have been Norton free for about 8 months."! Does this mean that Norton was removed 8 months ago or your first attempt was 8 months ago? This statement suggests to me that you do not fully understand the full implications of what you are saying "I would think I removed Norton and it would rebuild it self. That’s right I would think it was gone and a few days later it would return.". If Norton is removed it stays removed unless you do something to restore it. Thus if you restored your system from a backup then you would have Norton again but that requires action by the user. Restoration does not occur without user input. Norton Ghost is capable of providing backup images. However you say you removed that programme. Elephant Drive is an Online Data Storage system and it could be that you have reintroduced Norton from restoring from your Elephant Drive facility. We can only guess! It's for you to say whether this is what you have done? Your first post said "Norton Cannot Be Removed and Disables Competing Products." Norton does interfere with programmes that try to make changes to the Windows Registry. Users of Norton products need to be aware of this and work round the problems this causes. However, there are a number of other similar products that do similar things. What anti-virus and anti-spyware programmes are you using? What firewall are you using? I should mention that the the first person who responded to your request for help was a troll named "pcbutts1 [MS MVP]". There was nothing wrong with his advice but he is not an MS MVP.

To give me advice on how to remove these programs shows you did not understand my message. 2. I do not need advise on how to remove Norton as I had the best people I could find at Norton do it. 3. I did everything you recommended to remove Norton myself and more, far more but it was never completely removed. I rebooted 3 times. 4. I would think I removed Norton and it would rebuild it self. That’s right I would think it was gone and a few days later it would return. 5. I paid Norton for help. 6. They advised me to have one of their people remove the program but several techs refused because it was too hard. 7. I finally found someone from Norton who agreed to help. Norton did not charge because they knew Norton was in the wrong. 8. The tech from Norton tried everything you said to remove Norton and more far more. (He had me reboot the computer at least 4 times.) IT DIDN’T WORK 7. Then he removed Norton by hand. It took about 7 hours to do it. He got help from his boss and coworkers, He also had to stop and read manuals. I even think he made a few phone calls. 8. I have been Norton free for about 8 months. 9. I got Elephant Drive an online storage service about 4 months ago. 10. Norton Ghost is a backup program and as such is in competition with Elephant Drive. 11. Norton Products often attack and disable competing products. 12. I have been using Elephant Drive for about 4 months and suddenly it stopped working so I got on the chat line with someone from Elephant Drive who tried to get it working without success. 13. He had me look through an Elephant Drive file that had nested files and one of the files said Norton Ghost. Months after Ghost was removed by experts it returned. My guess is that Norton is burned into ROM by Dell. I’m not saying Ghost or any other Norton product is installed in ROM only that there is something in ROM that keeps Norton around and helps Norton attack competing products.

All the removal tool does is hide the program it does not remove it. ============ The removal tool actually does remove the program - the files, folders, and registry entries. If it isn't working for you, restart in Safe Mode as Administrator, and remove the folders and registry entries manually. If you don't know how to do this, it might be a good idea to hire someone who does. Have them back up the drive before doing this, just to be on the safe side.

Norton Cannot Be Removed and Disables Competing Products.
Enough is enough. If you don't like the answers you get here, go somewhere
else like back to Norton. This is a newsgroup for XP new users. If your machine came with Norton or you installed Norton it is your responsibility to know that Norton does not have a totally reliable product (as you found out.) If in doubt about a program, ask the question here before you install it. The best way to ensure that Norton is totally uninstalled, in your case, is to totally reinstall Windows from scratch, don't use any of your backup except for individual data files and your programs from their original disks. As for the MVP war, I'm not an MVP and don't really care to be one. I am on this group to help others, not for any type of recognition. My advice is generally sound, but like others, I occasionally make mistakes. So, whether you have the right to use MVP or not, I don't really care. If you help people to the best of your ability that is all that matters. "flamestar" wrote in message ...

You must have a reading comprehension problem. Show me and everyone else a
post from me giving out bad or wrong advice. Show me a post where my advice has broke or caused harm to another computer. Show me a post where I just up an attacked another person posting in this or any other group for no reason. The bad attitude starts with the people in this group who reply to my post with lies similar to what you have done stating that I am a thief and a liar. For over three years now they have been attacking me and trying to get rid of me and my website. I have been sued twice and won both of them. I have had 3 DMCA violations fraudulently files against my website. I beat all three. I have been contacted by the FBI investigating a complaint filed by Christopher Butts, the person you all think I am, about harassing phone calls apparently made to his job by the trolls in these newsgroup, why on earth would anybody do that? The trolls listed in my sig and a few stupid MVP's can't take failure and being wrong and being called out about it so they keep nitpicking and attacking me. Watch how many reply to this post.

The question which has fuelled the controversy is representing yourself as an MS MVP.

Show me and everyone else a post from me giving out bad or wrong advice. Show me a post where my advice has broke or caused harm to another computer. Show me a post where I just up an attacked another person posting in this or any other group for no reason. The bad attitude starts with the people in this group who reply to my post with lies similar to what you have done stating that I am a thief and a liar.

I first used it with my pcbutts1 nickname 5 years ago. They didn't complain
then until Dave the thief stole my program passed it off as his own and accused me of stealing it when he got called out on it. I stopped using it when posting as pcbutts1,they didn't stop. That was years ago. Three weeks ago I started using it again. I have the right to use it I will continue to use it. Those idiots have a personal vendetta against me. I am not going to stop just to "see" what they will do, I already know. You put too much trust in those MVP's this is not their NG nor are they in charge. -- Newsgroup Trolls.
