i no the obvious thing to do but any other advice like where did it come from


AND ANYBODY DONT BUY NORTON ANYTHING ITS SHIT NOTHING BUT HASSLE
lol, well I sort of agree with you there. the anti-virus is very weak (regardless of what the amateurs who think it's the holy grail of anti-virus say), the maintenanc programs are somewhat decent, and disk doctor just doens't seem to work for anybody. there's free anti-malware programs out there that are much better, such as ewido which I REALLY recommend you and everybody get.

as for the uninstall issue. my answer is yes and no lol. sometimes this will totally remove it, sometimes not, depending on how deeply it's imbedded itself. regardless, it will at least make life more difficult for the malware trying to do it's thing.

the whole norton problem I'm not really sure about. obviously, yes you should try reinstalling it. once you uninstall it however, go into start/run/chkdsk /f . when it says it can't run, do you want to run it on next start up y/n , hit Y and press enter, then reboot. then after it's all done, reinstall norton (assuming you still want it).

also, 2 programs I'd recommend is zonealarm free version, which is a pretty good firewall. and if you're willing to buy a program, I'd recommend getting webroot spysweeper, which you can find in most retail electronics stores.

if you're still having trouble after all this, try the trendmicro 30 day trial anti-spyware, which is best in my opinion. plus, I can walk you through a manual registry edit (which will no doubt find other crap).
