First off, uninstall it and get a better anti-virus client. Norton does next to nothing for A LOT of viruses. I would recommend at least having avast! anti-virus.

I don't use Norton, it just keeps saying sign up for Norton, sign up for Norton, sign up for Norton. I want to kill Norton! LOL

Search the registry and delete every mention of "Norton". Of course, that can be dangerous to do, but I finally cleaned that whole mess off my computers. Another, easier way to avoid seeing the ad is to download the PTFB program and set it to zero for the pop-up.
