I am unable to completely uninstall Norton systemworks. I was installing a new antivirus software when I receive a message informing me of my old software. I did a search and found the software, so I try to delete it. I receive a message stating access denied. Any suggestion?
 
Go into the registry and remove any reference to nortons, this should do the trick. It can take hours.
Regards

Jurgen
