McAfee VirusScan Plus 07 Conflict Problems?

Hello Everyone,



I am trying to install McAfee VirusScan Plus 2007 on my Windows XP machine. Each time I get an error saying it can't install because of Norton Rescue Disk and Norton Antivirus 2002 Professional Edition.



I have never installed these items so they must have come with this computer (Dell Dimension). I uninstalled everything I could but am still getting the error.



Here is what I have done so far:



*Uninstalled Norton



*Went to the Norton website and used the removal tool to get rid of anything Norton leaves behind.



*Removed all Norton/Symantec folders and files.



*Went into the Regedit and got rid of everything Norton/Symantec



*Also tried booting into Safe Mode to get rid of everything.



*ran all my spyware products.



*Went to the McAfee help site and they cant' help me because it is a Norton product.



*Went to Norton and they don't have anything relating to products from 2002.



So, how on EARTH do I get rid of this? I want to install my software.



Much much thanks in advance.



I really need to get rid of this program. Also, I can not reinstall XP because it didn't come with this Dell.

Norton antispyware or Nortons antivirus is pure junk for many years and keeps getting worse each an every year. When you remove Nortons from add/remove plus also perform all that task that you have listed, Nortons still leaves hidden/glued to your files over 300 fragments. The hidden one are the worse being they are hidden in your system. (Nortons in my opinion knows that their sofware is garbage, so the punish you when you think you have removed their program). The 300 plus fragments cause conflict with all new antivirus system you try an install.
