Just downloaded and trying to install the Home version. I get a message box with these contents.
Setup found another antivirus on your system.
If you decide to install this program it may conflict with tfollowing programs:
Norton Antivirus / Internet Security
Continue?
I had previously had NAV 2002 and the rest of the NSW suite, but uninstalled it all (successfully I thought). In the interim I was using AVG 6.0 (working correctly apparently) and uninstalled that in preparation for installing Avast.
Upon receiving the above, I used jv16PowerTools and located some Symantec keys (apparently to do with auto-update) and deleted those.
Next try, still got the same popup.
Used a registry search to locate all occurances of "norton antivirus" in the Registry. Found two (one a GUID-type key -deleted that) thie other has the string "norton antivirus" buried in the binary data of this key:
HKEY_USERS\{long number}\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\98
Value: ViewView2
I havent touched this one but still get the popup warning.
Presumably its OK to go ahead but I'm curious what trace I might have left of NAV-AV that might be triggering this reaction?
