Yep we used the cleanwipe tool when we went from Symantec to Vipre - worked fine when ran on the systems we were trying to get cleaned up.

Very effective at removing Syamantec products. I wrote some additional script checks myself and used it remove Symantec and follow-up with an AVG install. You should call Symantec and request the CleanWipe tool or whatever their equivalent would be for the Norton products. They should have an admin level scriptable tool for you that can be pushed without interaction.

In that case I send a 2 second message to the user, disable keyboard/mouse control, run the script, enable keyboard/mouse control. Disabling keyboard/mouse control does not disable keyboard send commands. >>> David Lum <[email protected]> 6/23/2009 1:26 PM >>> I’ve done stuff like that before with KiXtart. Problem is in this case I want to do it w/out the user seeing anything or being interrupted, hence PSEXEC.

I've tried /remove, /quiet, and /noprompt but those didn't work. Does anyone know of a switch the might bypass that stuff? I'd rather not just blow away the directory any leave open reg entries around...
