Uninstalling Norton Anti Virus

[system]

I want to get rid of NAV before I install avast. But, I do not want to remove other Norton System Works from my machine. Is there an easy way to delete NAV without deleting the rest of System Works?

Or would it be simpler and best to uninstall all of the Norton stuff, then install avast antivirus, then reinstall those parts of Norton I want on my machine…not including NAV, of course.

Thank you.

You can try Control Panel > Add/Remove programs > Norton SystemWorks > Change
Uncheck the NAV component.

When I uninstalled Norton AV 2004, there were 3 different
“components” listed in my Add/Remove Programs,
including “Live Update”; i clicked on each of the “listings”
to uninstall each one separate from the other ones.
I think the 3rd “component” was called “WMI…” .
