Antispyware updates /symantec Antivirus

[Guest]

I'd be interested in hearing precisely what Norton version is involved--this

should only be impacting the Corporate Edition products, but there are a
number of those.

Symantec Antivirus Enterprise Edition Ver 9 clients. The
uninstall/reinstall process is different depending upon what version of
antivirus was first installed on the machine. I've had to go through 5 - 6
different ways to remove the software and/or manually remove the software on
various workstations. Also I have to tell you that so far the machines that
I've had to do this on do NOT appear completely stable afterwards. I have a
whole variety of mostly microsoft office type problems when the users next
login after I've reinstalled symantec. It's very ugly and I still have at
least 15 more workstations to do this on so who knows what else I'll see out
there.

It sounds as though you've got good information about the uninstall process.
Using Symantec's manual descriptions that are appropriate for the precise
version installed on a given machine is best if you don't have the original
media.

I'm not sure what to say about the stability issue--keep me posted, please.

Good luck, however usage questions should be directed toward Symantec.
