I have Norton...I want AVG what do I do?

[KatyMac]

Do I take Norton off & download AVG
Do I download AVG the take Norton off

It's all so confusing

You remove norton first and then download AVG. I had real bother removing norton from my laptop.

take norton off first but you will have problems i guarantee

will probably need to go to norton website

and may need to fiddle

it still leaves bits

Oh poop

Shoul I take it into the shop & get someone to do it for me?

try yourself...

I had no trouble whatsoever uninstalling Norton from mine when I switched to Kaspersky.

You can do it. If you google 'how to remove norton from your computer' you will get really helpful info. Cheaper than getting a shop to do it for you.

Can I stay on MN while I do it & get emails or should I turn the internet off to protect my computer

Yes you can but you will need to restart your computer when you have removed it.

Do I want to delete quarantined files

I'd better google it

Can't remember, but I think you do.

I had no probs doing this.

Go into Control Panel, add and remove prgrams, click Norton. Delete. Restart computer then download whatever you like

I downloaded Windows Live One Care on a free 90 day trial and preferred it to AVG; so much so that I bought the full 1 year subscription from Pc World last week

....and yes delete quarantined files

Hmm - I keep getting Norton stuff pop up

I simply uninstalled Norton from MIL's computer and then installed AVG from their website. Seemed to be working fine this weekend.

H's work did the same to my new laptpop a cuple of weeks ago too. So far it is fine.
