Unwanted Software

When I start up my computer, I get this popup wanting me to use the preinstalled virus software (Norton). However, I prefer to use a different product.

How can I get this to quit popping up?

Hi Bob,

If Norton did not uninstall cleanly, then use the Norton Removal Tool to clean up the remnants.

Download and run the Norton Removal Tool

Hope this helps,
Shawn
