RE: using the norton removal tool and ridding myself of Norton internetsecurity

Hi Chris, You're suggesting a step back farther than I had. You're suggesting returning to the time prior to Norton's installation. Sure, you can try it. Windows is reliable enough to allow you to undo the restore if if doesn't pan out, or it will inform you that it isn't able to. Best, Rod

ahh, the "eyes" have it after all, which I completely agree with that safe way. Pride, and all that, but . . . when push comes to shove, I don't think I want to be shoved off the cliff without the eyes that have the advantage. :) -- Curtis Delzer On Wed, 25 May 2016

Re: using the norton removal tool and ridding myself of Norton internetsecurity

Hi Rod I do believe we're just gonna play it safe, and go with the sighted person working eyes route. I don't know if I fully trust the system restore way, because that would mean I'd have to install a few other programs, and I'd like to avoid that if at all possible. I'll let you

Re: using the norton removal tool and ridding myself of Norton internetsecurity

Hey Chris I have another idea that I might investigate as well. I have a sighted friend who might be willing to do a remote session with me and he may be able to read the captcha that way. I hate when these programs download this extra stuff you don't want or need. To me, it

RE: using the norton removal tool and ridding myself of Norton internetsecurity

Hi, Best advice is to get a set of eyes to run the Norton removal utility. Antivirus programs do some things that prevent programs like revo uninstaller to completely remove them. It makes sense actually. You wouldn't want a virus to easily remove Norton. Window-Eyes Product Support Ai

Re: using the norton removal tool and ridding myself of Norton internetsecurity

Hi I don't currently have the plugin but I can get it for sure. I don't believe that would work though, because remember, Firefox has to be running and in focus for the plugin to do its work, so I don't know if that would do the job. The removal tool is a separate program that you
