Symantec/Norton is the barnacle of the software world and is harder to evict
than your mother-in-law.

After using Symantec's sooper-sekret removal tool (from their website),
you'll probably have to manually scrub the registry. Next you'll probably
have to scan your hard drive for residual folders.

Good luck.
