    Why uninstall ?
    Keep them in case you need in future (except Norton which is the biggest virus itself).
    Use diffender or spybot (start up tweaks) to disable them. They will just lie in your backyard!!!

    Unfortunatelly eFramework is needed for all acer apps to run -- I use only power and network settings (heavy), so that prevails on my side (unless someone can suggest better tools for those tasks.
