I recently upgraded to Windows 2000 Professional from Win 98. Now, I need to install Norton Antivirus 2002 but McAfee was installed. So, I unintalled McAfee but there is an Antivirus detected so I cannot do the Install. I have check the registry, check the explorer, and tried some command prompt executables, but nothing worked. I wonder, if out there, someone would give me some suggestions on what to do before I just format and reload the PC. I would like to prevent doing so, but I wanted to see if there was anyone out there that could help me out. Thank you so much!!!
