Norton Internet Security is currently on after uninstall

After I uninstalled Norton System Works, the FTP, HTTP and HTTPS ports were
blocked by the firewall. I then used the Norton removal utility to completely
uninstall the program, but Security Center, Windows firewall indicates that
"Norton Internet Security is currently on."

How do I get rid of this program?

Thanks,
John
 
You've tried symantec support to see if there is manual removal
instructions?
ie what reg keys to delete etc
 
Hope that one of the tools will solve your problem.

Symantec NIS, NAV and NSW 2004, 2005, 2006 removal:

Use Symantec's Norton removal tool to make sure your previous Norton is
correctly removed prior to installing the new one .

Thanks. I ran CCleaner and RegSeeker, cleaned up a lot, but the problem
persisted. Using RegSeeker I found the registry entry for Symantec and all
its subfolders and deleted the lot. Searched for NAV, NIS and NSW again with
no results. On restart, the problem persists. I'm open to other ideas.
