Recently I disabled my norton antivirus program so that I could install a new harddrive without problems. The new harddrive replaced the old one as the C: Drive, and all files were moved onto the new hard drive. I don't think that's the problem, but that's just for background info. For some reason I can't re-enable norton now. Norton firewall was re-enabled fine but norton anti-virus says that it has trouble starting up the integrator and symantec.com says to reinstall. Re-installing is simple, but I want to know if it will automatically bring back all my old definitions, or if they will just go away.

Do definitions come back when reinstalling Norton?

Usually the definitions in position after a reinstall are those that are on the CD rom.
You should be able to visit the Symantec site immediately after installation for a full Live Update (assuming your product is within its licence period).
Normally you are directed towards LiveUpdate during the install process.
