Vista - Upgrade Disabled Due To Compliance Can't Be Run

I am trying to Upgrade From Windows Vista Beta 2 to Windows Vista July CTP.
The Upgrade option used to work. It said to Uninstall Norton Products 2003
- 2006 after the compliance check originally. So I went in and Used the
Norton Products Removal Tool and removed all Norton Products from 2003 -
2006. Now The Updrage option is disabled and it says the the Compliance
Check cannot be run.
Anyone know what to do next. I must Upgrade!

Why don't you try ignoring the false error report in your web-based
newsreader long enough to see if the posting took? Or if the bug annoys
you, try Windows Mail.

Because I hate newsgroups and was hoping that someone from Microsoft would
respond!

It's a known bug. It's been around a while.

Why is someone smart enough to be using Vista builds not using an NNTP
newsreader instead of the piece of crap web interface that the "Community"
morons are too lazy and stupid to fix?

Colin --

At what point wil it occur to you that the community morons paid to look
after the web interface for these groups are too stupid and lazy to fix the
duplicate post bug and fundamental elements in that news group including
limited slow downloads of messages from the server and a panoply of other
features? I mean it's been going on intermittently for months over the
years.

How un-Ray Ozziesque--what do the idiots do for their paycheck?

It's been around for a while because the mornons that run community are four
plus stupid. How long does it take for them to see the multiple posts, and
then call IT or whatever the hell fixes things at Redmond for them for help?
Surely they have a developer at Redmond--or perhaps they could use one of
the dozens of outside coders MSFT has hired to debug Vista at 3-4 grand per
day.

It doesn't matter what occurs to me. I can't fix it. All I can do is
advise people that they are not doing something wrong and learn to work
around it.
