RE: BSOD when uninstalling Norton

Norton support site can help you with this. You cannot use Norton with Vista,
as you have found out. You need to wait for the Vista version, or better yet,
skip Norton altogether. Vista has builtin utilities for everything except
anti virus. For that you can use AVG's freebie.
