Computer hangs after you have uninstalled Norton Internet Security Suite

I recently uninstalled Norton Security suite (it's too intrusive) and installed Microsoft Security Essentials.  Since then, the machine hangs with a black screen if it's for more than 30 minutes.  I tried to restore to a previous restore point, but the machine to restore to the previous point (I also tried in safe mode).  I went to the site of Norton and their uninstall program to ensure that all of the Norton was out of my machine.  Also, the machine will now not install the automatic updates from Microsoft (I have 4 in the meantime), even if I try manually.

My operating system is XP Professional SP3

    Here is how I fixed it:

    Click on "Change adapter settings" in the left pane.

    Right click on your map. Select "Properties".

    There will be a box titled "this connection uses the following items."

    Hello

    Use the Norton removal tool:

    Be sure to check with their website for instructions and removal tools to remove ANY legitimate product security.

    If you have Norton, McAfee or other on this machine, you will need to get their uninstall tool, even if you have uninstalled it
    Since most of the remains of leave.

    Norton Removal tool
    http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039

    Download what you intend to replace Norton with the Norton Removal Tool and

    Go to where you place the Reboot - on - right click RUN AS ADMIN - tool

    Then do the same for the replacement.

    ---------------------------------------------------------

    Here is what I use:

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields you do no need unless authorized Standard, sea and the operation of the network.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

    Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
    (Double click on top of the blue icon - details look OK. - left Shields - terminate those that you don't use - I do not have)
    (Use P2P, Outlook/Exchange or Messenger because I do not use these type programs - your needs may vary.)
    http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
    Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
    a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
    Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
    a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    I hope this helps.

  • HP Envy M6 Simplepass finger reader will not work after you uninstall Norton internet security.

    I've seen a few problems to do with the drive of finger and Norton internet security, but I couldn't find a solution to the problem. I looked on biometric devices and it says "Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19) »

    I've been on the re HP Recovery section - install drivers and applications and reinstalled the HP Simplepass program, but I do not uninstall before that I did and that's maybe why it did not work.

    What to do to make the finger drive working again?

    Kind regards

    Maddie

    Ok. So I got a new laptop that has a fingerprint sensor. I opened the Recovery Manager and see that there are TWO pieces of software that need to be installed/reinstalled.
    (1) the validity of the pilot sensor of fingerprint in the drivers section.
    (2) the SimplePass software in the software section.

    Most of the drivers and software in the Recovery Manager do not need to be uninstalled first - the installation package should do this automatically.

    If you have not already done so, install the driver of validity using Recovery Manager and restart your computer.

  • I need to uninstall Norton internet security, but can not find it listed w / other icons

    I'm currently renewing my nod 32 eset security. I should be able to go to select Norton internet security icon & control panel & remove it w / the norton removal tool. But I don't see that it listed w / all the other icons in the control panel. ESET told me its here & should be deleted.

    If you can't remove it from Add or remove programs, then you will need to use NORTON REMOVAL TOOL. It detects all versions and products of norton and delete them.

    Click on the link above and click on softpedia secure download (US).
    Download it and run it.
    Restart your computer.
    Now, you will be able to install Eset.

  • Internet does not seem to work after you have uninstalled Avira Premium Edition, but Google Chrome works

    Recently, I uninstalled Avira Premium Edition. I opted for 1 month trial but I uninstalled before the expiry of 1 month. The uninstall process went well. But when I restarted the computer, the Internet does not seem to work, but Google Chrome works as usual. When I tried to connect to MSN, it says "error Code: 80072ee7. It's something on the Internet connection. I guess it takes some files that must have accidentally disappeared with the uninstall process.

  • After you have uninstalled Photoshop and Premiere Elements of my (old) computer, about a year ago, I'm now impossible to accept the serial numbers printed on my new computer Win10 - please help (my first forum). The site noted maintenance?

    Due to a series of problems with my computer old (now), I uninstalled Adobe Photoshop and Premiere Elements, after carefully printed on the profile and serial numbers.  Now, after buying a Windows 10 HP desktop, I tried to install a very valuable software.  From the beginning of the installation, I entered the serial number - as - my print-out.  He refused and I was asked to enter again!   Checked and re-checked-exactly as I had entered it.  But the refusal of those same numbers have persisted.

    Logging into my account - after the link printed for the serial number of the product (https://www.adobe.com/go/acctmgmtserialnum) has failed to implement a destination in my browser - I see that there is mention of maintenance — although the denial of my serial number was not this as a problem, rather simply accepting the number.  Under my products, I drew the caveat that the information could not be provided.

    I learned that a forum - an area in which I never dared before - is my ONLY option.  Even though I remember receiving a lot of emails about CC - I was very happy with my existing Photoshop and still haven't use iCloud.

    As a 'beginner' complete in this way to get an answer, please help.

    Photoshop has been replaced and now to keep my software being installed as redundant?  Is it simply the maintenance being undertaken - and the rejection of serial number simply a warning "generic"?  -Thank you in advance - for any help you can afford me.

    I was not yet looking for Adobe Premiere Elements - waiting for the same print to attract the same rejection of the number.
