Hello. I had very weird situation with my almost brand new computer. When I got it, two months a go, Kaspersky Antivirus version 7 was installed. I always had some sort of aversion with the Kaspersky, so I decided to install Norton. I have started with the installation of the program, and when I saw that over 30 minutes is not enough for antivirus program to complete the installation, than I was thinking what the hell, I have a core duo inside, I dont need this crap, so I ave aborted the installation. Now, I cant install Kaspersky back again... What should I do?

Hi there. It seems like you have just deleted Kaspersky, you didnt removed the entire suite as you should from the add or remove programs from control panel, right? Now, the Norton has left a trace everywhere. There is no other option for you but to take a little mess around with your registry editor. First install Add remove for good, and after that try with some registry cleaning utility. When you finish, you should install Norton with ease.
