Norton safe web icons

I seem to be missing the green ticks from norton safe web when I do a search on Google..........the ones that say that site is safe..... does anyone know how to get them back please?

Step 1: Uninstall anything even slightly Norton related from your computer
Step 2: Install a decent AV product (such as bitdefender free , or MSE/Defender)
Step 3: Using a green marker, draw norton ticks in the appropriate places on the monitor

Yes well as I have paid for the darn thing for a year I would rather just get it working thx.

Sorry for the sarcasm, i just hate Norton ..


Have you tried to repair the software from control panel=>programs and features ?

which browser are you using, check the norton addon is enabled.

Am on Safari, it's enabled as it has the tick box at the toolbar at top of page and if you click on it it shows whatever site you are on is safe...... it went funny after I went on Firefox and it said something abt an extension.........

Seems to be ok now.............

Well the 2nd day I had this mac, totally new to it, I downloaded an update for Flash and ended up with a malware, freaked me out:( had to get John Lewis to get rid of it and then I brought Norton even though I had problems with it on windows. Had been ok till today but seems to be ok now.
