Applications, (Norton and McAfee) are notorious for not to uninstall (or upgraded) themselves.
1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe
2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).
3. right click on the file that you saved in #1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.
4. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.
5. open Internet Explorer (32-bit only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run it in DEFAULT and modes difficulty then AGGRESSIVE. [1]
6. restart a last time & test. If still no joy...
7. restore ALL your backups of CCleaner & Registry Booster, restart & test again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[1] full Disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but not the list of installed updates. -

How can I disable a shortcut that says 'open in Internet Explorer' and default back to FF
I use FF as my default browser. A few shortcuts work best in Internet Explorer, so I select the option 'Open in Internet Explorer' and it works fine. Now I would like to cancel one of these shortcuts and opened it in FF by the original. I tried to delete the shortcut, but all new shortcut FF for this website automatically opens in Internet Explorer.
How to cancel this initial transfer to IE so it opens again in FF?
"Open in Internet Explorer" is not a default feature, it is added by one of a few different extensions. If you tell us exactly which you have installed the extension, we can help to change the preference of the frame far from opening this page in Internet Explorer.
