Nortons Uninstall

I am currently using Norton 2003, and intend to change when my subscription runs out. That will be sometime in March. I had been thinking of AVG.

I have read that it is very difficult to uninstall Norton AV. So when I change, can I just download the new AV or will there be problems, and if so, how can I safely download a new AV after I uninstall Norton?

Is it true that Norton is difficult to uninstall?

Thanks,
Jerry

 

Hi jer03,

This will come in handy.

Ususally installing another AV goes smoothly after using the uninstall in Add/Remove Software combined with this utility.

Hi Pieter,
Many thanks. I am always hesitant to undertake some of these things that I have read cause a problem.

Of course, I know that if I have problems I can always come here and get help.

Thanks again,
Jerry
