Hi Andy
I think that you can undo a restore in Windows XP.

Hi Carol.
What a night. I was up until 3am trying to sort everything out. I managed
it eventually. I was advised to use unclean to remove Norton as Add/Remove
programmes in Control Panel had no option to remove Norton. However, when I
attempted this, I was only allowed to uninstall one of the two components.
After I did this however, I could not remove the other component or even
turn Norton off again. I took Peter's advise and un-checked everything to
do with Norton within my msconfig. Although I still have Norton installed,
it has been turned off and I'm back to using Sygate and AVG. Perhaps if I
attempt to uninstall Norton now by using unclean, it will work, but for the
meantime, I'm just going to let it sit there. Unfortunately, I also
restored my computer back 2 months last night so now have to reinstall a few
programmes. Remind me in future Carol if I start talking about trying
Norton again eh?
Best wishes.
Andy from sunny Kilcreggan.
