Ray,

I've now uninstalled AVG, because I still haven't found out the correct
order to uninstall Norton Internet.  (There are three or four components
and I know they're to be uninstalled in a particular order but don't
know what it is.)  For the moment Norton is up to date and I'm thinking
about what to do next.  Unfortunately, when I uninstalled AVG, I forgot
that it had a plug-in on Outlook to check messages and now that it's
uninstalled I keep getting an error message as of course it can't be
loaded.  If anyone knows a fix here, apart from the inevitable Registry
tweak, please let me know.

With regard to the other errors I was having, they were at first only a
problem when I chose to disable Norton in order that I could install
software.  Later, as I began to crash a number of times, that message
came up all the time, regardless of what I was doing.  Now, I am very
glad to say, that constant nagging seems to have gone away!

Sorry if I wasn't clear before.  Never mind!  Thanks for trying to help!

Sorry again if this has in fact made it on the list, just haven't seen
it, but hope it will be of some little help to Carol.

Not quite sure Carol what you are asking here.  I disable email
protection in AVG because, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get to my
email at all.  It isn't that I know what I'm doing, exactly, but if I
did want Norton and AVG both doing email protection then I don't know
how I'd do that.

It just happens that Norton and AVG seem to co-exist happily enough in
memory and I haven't identified a conflict as yet.  SI-Soft Sandra
definitely advises against it, and she may well be right.  Maybe I
should unload AVG accept for when I want to do a scan with it and update
it.

I like to do a clean uninstall of everything when I'm not using a
program, or simply updating to another version. I definitely think this
is good with Acrobat Reader updates, at least in major version upgrades.
Things tend to be far less problematic registry-wise if you do that. Ray

OK, Ray, so are you saying that you take all programmes you can out of
your system before installing anything?  That is when I meet a problem.
They both even seem to scan outgoing mail for me.  (Perhaps there's a
trade-off somewhere!  <SMILE>)

Carol, I too am using Norton alongside aVG and, so far, no problems to
report.  In email though, you have to settle for either Norton or AVG to
do the scanning of incoming emails, or, I think that's what you have to
do, because I cannot get the two to work together.

SANDRA, the 'tell you everything you want to know about computer'
program doesn't like the two being in memory, and it might be right! AVG
is far from being a resource hogger though, and its updated far more
often than Norton.

I shall probably square up to removing Norton when my subscription runs
out next spring.  I might then have to decide on a new firewall.  I'm
getting very concerned about firewall's ability to stop nasties getting
out of your computer, as well as keeping them out.  Firewalls are so
damned complicated though that getting my head around propper
configuration is likely to be a real headache. Ray

People say this but, in reality, I have seen two anti-virus programmes
on my machine offer better protection than one.  I have both Norton and
AVG.  They co-incide and I've known them both come up with the goodies!
This is my only problem with Norton and I hardly think it's worth
ditching if I can solve it.

Maybe I'll think differently one day . . ..

The best thing you could do Carol would be to ditch Naughton.
