    Symantec used to have an A - Z listing of removal tools on their site but all I can see now is a limited list of not that many removal tools.

    Anyone know if this is still available of anything similar even?

    This is what i used yesterday, covers all Norton software afaik.

    On a side note, i found that Roxio was a bugger to remove also, they have a removal tool also. Why do Dell, Hp etc sell pc's with such programs, which really embed themselves in the registry and are next to impossible to uninstall without the removal tool?

    Thanks PogMoThoin,

    I'm no stranger to using the Norton Removal Tool & that's for sure :D

    Norton isaVirus can be really difficult to remove as can McAfee can be too.

    Anyway PogMoThoin, I think you misunderstood what it was I was looking for?

    I was after the individual standalone virus removal tools that used to be listed on the Symantec site (Not the Product Removal Tool).

    Their site still has a somewhat limited list but it used to ha an A - Z list if I remember correctly.

    Speaking of Dell & Roxio :eek:

    Where did you get that Roxio removal tool from? (Was it called ZAP 1?)

    It's part of what I'm after but it has very few standalone removal tools compared to the way it used to be. They used to have an A to Z with way more of them. The current list seems to have an awful lot less.
