Thread: Not sure what this is...

  1. #1
    I already uninstalled Norton Internet Security yet the Security Center in my Control Panel still say that it's active? O.o ... I'm using Outpost right now so I'm wondering how to turn it off... I can't find the program anywhere on my computer

    Try this

    This little program, will dump all traces of your Norton programs They say its only to be used when you can't uninstall it (corrupted install). use it anyways, and get rid of all the extra registry stuff that the regular uninstall doesn't take care of
