Whenever I try to remove the MS Video Screensaver, Norton AV sends me a high
risk message that malicious script has been detected. The file identified is
MsiExec.exe.
In addition to running Norton daily, I also run Ad-Aware SE Personal and
Spybot - S&D a couple of times a week. I've also run the MS Malicious
Software Removal Tool without finding anything.
How can I remove this software?
Thanks.

I'm not sure what the MS Video Screensaver is.

If this is a legitimate piece of software that you are intentionally
removing, I think I would disable Norton for long enough to accomplish that
removal. MsiExec.exe is, as far as I can determine at this distance, a
legitimate part of the Windows Installer system, and probably needs to be
run as part of the removal process.
