By message do you mean one of those transient pop-up windows? The
problem is probably that Norton's background process is not uninstalled
(when you try to) because it is running. You could bring up Task Manager
(right click on the taskbar and choose Task Manager) and find and kill
the Norton process. Unfortunately, you are going to have to guess its
name. What sort of system are you running? Windows 98? XP? 2000? Vista?
Do you have administrative rights to the computer?

If the registry entries are all gone and the folders have been removed
everywhere (including hidden folders like Documents &
Settings/Application Data/All Users (and your user name too) Norton
shouldn't know what to do.
Make sure to look for hidden folders and files
I'd like to think that after ALL that there aren't any Norton related
processes that could have started on bootup, but it can't hurt to
check.
Here's one to look for... Lucomserver, it's the live update 'phone
home' function.
Also, if you find the offending routine, you kill it, and it comes
back, try starting the computer in 'safe' mode, kill the process if it
even started, then seach the file name and while the process isn't
running delete the file and any other Norton and Symantec entries in
the registry.
