Harold, what is the make and model of your computer? I thought you
mentioned that you have an HP.

That's a good question. Now how would I know? I did a search for
Symantec on the computer and found maybe 10 references. Most refer to
"LiveUpdate" and in following up on some of the files, I found that it
only has to do with IE (which I rarely use; I use Firefox). In following
up in IE, I find it has something to do with the bar that often appears
under the "Information bar" that tells how IE is stopping popups from
appearing.
So being totally confused now, I moved all Symantec references to the
Recycle bin (knowing that I can always restore from there to their
original locations) and I'll reboot seeing if there are any appreciable
changes in my system. Maybe I'll keep it this way for a while and not
move any of those Symantec files/folders out of the Recycle bin until
I'm sure all is working well. If I accidentally do, and you don't here
from me for 10 years, you'll know my plan didn't work :-)
But your question is interesting. How would one know if one has anything
*from* a "whatever name" installed on a PC? --- Harold
Do you have anything from Symantec installed on your PC now? If so,
that folder is for it. - -Clint
----- Original Message ----- I have one Symantec folder in my "Program
Files" and two in my "Application Data" folders. I know it has something
to do with LiveUpdate,
maybe only needed with Norton. I use AVG (free) for those "nasties" ...
does this Symantec have any other reason besides Norton for being in my
system? I deleted Norton ages ago, and using RegSeeker it doesn't even
appear in the Registry.
