Re: How can I disable Norton pop up nag csreen?

How can I disable or delete the nag pop up screen that constantly pops up asking if I want to update my Norton products. Actually, it's on my daughter's lap top. I uninstalled all my Norton products a while back because I prefer some of the free programs that are available. I already uninstalled the Norton anti virus' clean up and utilities programs on her lap top but she wants to keep the Go Back and Firewall programs. I think it's the Norton Firewall program that keeps putting up the reminder pop ups because it needs renewing. Does any one know what to delete to stop the constant nags?


Check responses to your *same* post that was MULTIposted in 24hoursupport.helpdesk.

Learn to cross-post:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossposting
http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm
http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/usenet/xpost.html

A point not made is that N multiposted copies will consume N times the disk space for each of the separate copies of the same post. Crossposted messages have just *one* copy on the server with links in the newsgroups back to the same single copy. Multiposting wastes disk space on the server. Yes, your post may be small but remember that you consume N times the space on one server and then do so again on all the newsgroups servers worldwide. You waste more bandwidth getting N copies of your multiposted message distributed to all the newsgroups servers worldwide. Cross-posting has just one copy of the message on an NNTP server, and only one copy gets propagated to other NNTP servers.

To those visiting the newsgroups, crossposting helps them see ALL the replies from those in the other RELATED newsgroup to which you linked your post. That way, they don't waste their time duplicating similar replies.
