Rich D said:For the life of me I couldn't figure out why it occured. When I did do
some
registry digging I noticed all of the registry keys that were associated
with
uninstalling programs were gone. As soon as you reinstall a program the
uninstall feature works again. It's quite a strange problem. I figured
this
would be the perfect time to do a full reinstall anyway. Granted, I don't
want the issue to happen again.

system and can't get rid of the old Norton system on here (because of the
lack of an uninstall button which was there at one time and then mysteriously
disappeared) which is causing all sorts of problems. I tried manually
removing Norton in explorer but there is only so much you are allowed to
manually remove which probably made it worse. So now I am running Trend and
Norton is sending me all kinds of error messages everytime the computer
boots...even after shutting "off" all of the security tasks. Maybe I should
try reinstalling Norton and then the uninstall button will show back up? I
am leary of doing this because I don't want to screw up my Trend
system....anyone tried this? Do the microsoft people ever read these because
I can't believe they haven't come up with a fix for this obnoxious problem
yet.

control panel this way. This should clear your system completely of "all"
symantec programs.

guessing within the last week or so. Anybody have a registry fix for this
issue? I'd assume it would be a registry fix...
