deleting norton anti virus

[BJ]

Hi,
Would just like to know after deleting norton anti virus,
do I need to go into the C program files and delete what
is in there, I tried to, but it said it would affect
other programs so I didn't. Do these files stay on my
system forever if I don't have Norton System Works
anymore?
Thank you
BJ

BJ, if you used Norton's Uninstaller or did it from Add/Remove Programs then
you can delete the Norton Folder in
Program Files.

There may be files left over. Files created/added to the directory the
NAV/SystemWorks was installed will not be removed during the uninstall
process. Then, there is the NAV quarantine files.

ok I did use the add/remove program, and when I went into
the program files to delete them, I get this! Cannot
delete NDRVEX.DLL: access denied Then it says make sure
the disk is not full or writen protected and that the
file is not currently in use. So what do I do now? Thanks

Go to Start>Run type: msconfig select Startup and see if there's
an entry for Norton that you can uncheck. If yes
then reboot and see if you can delete the files. If not go here.

Select D and scroll to delete undeletable files.

You can boot to safe mode, and then delete the .dll
