Following up the Norton removal tool suggestion in Train's message #2 in this forum (NEW COMPUTER/RESOLVED), a friend of mine with a very similar HP desktop, except for AMD in place of Intel, has Norton popping up all the time, so I'd like to remove it...Norton was never installed, but there are always reminders to do so. Now I'd like to remove any/all Norton references. Do I need to uninstall Norton first through Control Panel before using the removal tool as I did for McAfee Security Center, followed by their removal tool, on my new DELL system? I hope not, b/c that may have contributed to all the problems I had with the new HP, which I ultimately returned to Best Buy.

Thanks for helping!
