Chris, embarrased? Whey should you be. Just wondering if Windows Narator might be able to read the stuff? I would just say to hell with it and get some eyes. You don't want to do anything you can't reverse. Just curious, would a complete re-installed of the OS help? Yes, last resort, just realized that. :) If you have a friend who can help, you might want to think about installing something like Splashtop or Teamviewer, maybe someone could remotely do a fix.
Now for the bad news!!! In all casses I've come in contact with, the Norton removal tool is the only thing that can help and remove everyting with Norton. Hope that helps. Hey on another subject, you were the person having the Winamp issue right? Did you ever get that working?
