Pre-installed Norton software? Use SymNRT

Norton Removal Tool (SymNRT), download here:

This utility is really useful for brand computers that come with any Norton software preinstalled, successfully removing everything from your hard drive and Windows registry.

Particularly useful as well for a bug found with Microsoft Office / Microsoft Word. If any of the programs in the suite are taking too long to load and you have no idea why, chances are it could be a remaining part of Norton trying to scan your Word files for viruses.

In other words, don't trust normal uninstallation for Norton and run this instead.
