I need to renew my subscription with Symantec and get a window coming up every few seconds saying the virus protection is out of date.
I have tried un ticking the miscellaneous box in the software and restarting but
still the box comes up.Can I go into Tools and Internet options to remove?
How can I get rid of it please?Also I have just downloaded the AVG free antivirus software...Will this give me the performance to get rid of Symantec?

You must not run two anti-virus programs at the same time. If you are not going to renew your Norton subscription, you need to uninstall it first, including the Live Subscribe function.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0

So have you tried to uninstall Norton Anti-virus and Live Subscribe using Add/Remove? If you can't completely remove Norton yourself, you should find a removal tool on their website, depending on exactly which version you have.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0

Yes I managed to remove the Norton Internet Security and am using AVG
free.Unsure at the moment if it will do the same job.0
