Hi,

I have a Toshiba laptop that had the pre installed Norton. I don't know what version it was, but when I first got the laptop I uninstalled it incorrectly through the program features on the ocntrol panel. I don't know what version I had.

I have contacted customer support through netgear and toshiba. Toshiba thinks it is a Norton issue. I have tried the download uninstall tool twice.

After between 10-30 minutes of being online wirelessly I get booted off. The signal always remains excellent.

Any ideas on what to do from here?

Thanks!

Lisa

Have you run and downloaded Symantec's own removal tool for Norton software from here (it's only a small file)?:

Ignore 'Step 1' which deals with how to re-install it, 'cos you don't want to do that.

Just go to 'Step 2' and click the orange Download button.

Double-click the downloaded file and it will run.

Yes, I have run the removal tool a few times with no success. Someone had mentioned an additional tool called mscicleanup or something like that, but so far I haven't been able to locate an executable file.

Thanks!

Lisa :)
