My ISP gave us McAfee and I needed to remove Norton, which I did using Add/Remove programs. It looked like it was removed, but it wasn't really and now it keeps trying to do stuff to my computer and makes it run all the time. I later found out Norton has a special tool you need to use to remove their program, but to do that you need to be able to access the program in the computer which I can no longer do. My computer has become a real pain to use, and I'm thinking about reformatting the hard drive to get rid of Norton, but I'm afraid my gigapocket tv software won't work correctly after I reinstall it.

If you are XP, go into Control Panel and then System Restore. Roll your computer back to an earlier time period. This should put Norton back as it was. Then uninstall it correctly.
