Solved: Uninstall Norton
I had downloaded Norton Internet Security from my ISP and it wasnt working properly so I uninstalled it and all Symantec programs. Now when I try to reinstall the same program or anything from Symantec for that matter, it tells me to uninstall first. I have already uninstalled and deleted all Symantec files that I could find, along with all Symantec services. I still cannot install anything. Is there a file that Norton searches for during installation that I can remove?

To remove Norton, Click on Start > Settings > Control Panel
double click on Add/Remove Programs, search for every item that belongs to Norton, Symantec, or LiveUpdate and remove them, reboot when prompt, or reboot manually if your computer hasn't automatically rebooted. To remove the leftovers download and run the Norton Removal Tool, read HERE
