http://ca.huji.ac.il/bf/mcafee/NoNav.exe this tool will remove norton/symantec .
NONAV is an unsupported Symantec tool for removing files and registry keys from Norton Antivirus / Symantec Antivirus. This is helpful for example when an upgrade from an older version fails and you need to prepare the machine for a clean re-installation.
The tool can be sent out to customers as long as they have been informed that nonav is an unsupported tool / without warranty and provided "as-is".
NONAV removes the following products from filesystem/registry:
NAV Norton Antivirus 4.x / 5.x
NAVCE Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition 7.0x 7.5x 7.6x
SAVCE Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition 8.0x 8.1x 9.x
SSC Symantec System Center (from CE 7.x / 8.x / 9.x)
AMS Alert Management System (from CE 7.x / 8.x / 9.x)
SCF Symantec Client Firewall 5.x 7.x
NONAV can also be set to remove the following components:
Symevent drivers
LiveUpdate (1.5-2.0)
shared Virus Definitions
Central Quarantine Server / Quarantine Console
NONAV should leave other Symantec products alone on the machine but only very limited testing has been done on this.
PcAnywhere 10.5 / 11, Ghost 8.0/2003 and the Central Quarantine Server has been tested and appear to work fine after running nonav.
NONAV is designed to work on the following OS:
Windows 2003 Server
Windows XP
Windows 2000 Professional / Server
Windows NT4 Workstation / Server
Windows ME
Windows 98
Windows 95
Restart when finished and retry the install, if you want to.

thanks It workd on xp pro but I couldn't get it to work on win2000
Do any of you know how to recover or reset a password on the Symantec Antivirus server? It is not the default and it is also not the password that we thought we set. Any way to set it back to default?
