Hmmm... i encountered some problems while installing norton security scan through google updater.

The program didn't state what's the problem actually. So i clicked "learn more" and 3 options were given. The first option is to install it through norton's install wizard. The second option is to fix it later. The third option is to not install the program.

I clicked the first option and it led me to the installation. However, a problem occured.

I had no idea what's internal error 2753.Nss.exe. I clicked ok and the program just mentioned that the installation ended prematurely.

Why not try the easy way first? Tinkering with Windows registry is risky.

You delete the bolded part ONLY.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SymNRT

Not the whole thing. Windows will not start after you delete the whole thing.

Another better idea.

Download and install Google Pack. Google Pack consists of Norton Security Scan.

After that, try uninstalling Norton Security Scan, followed by Google Pack. There's no need to edit registry, find files to delete, etc.

And it's much more safer.

Do what Alucard says

1st step:
Delete the folder.
To find the folder, go to start->program->{your norton thingy's startup}
right click->properties
The folder will be listed in Target

Then you open windows explorer to go to the folder and manually delete

After deleting, delete it from your start
To do so, go to start->program->{your norton thingy's startup}
right click->delete

You might need to delete one by one.

One way we can do is to manually remove it instead of looking around for an uninstaller

Yea, saw it in the list of programs. Besides that, it sometimes launches itself to do some occasional scanning.

Just delete the folder and scan the registry with a tool like toni arts.
