    Sorry if this is a dumb question but there is a bunch of software that was preloaded but not installed on my computer. One of them is norton anti virus which am assuming is some 60 day trial version. So is there anyway I can remove just the Norton Anti virus?

    Reason being is I didn't know the trial version was preloaded and I already went out and bought and installed a copy of Norton. I would hate to have two copies of Norton sitting on my hard drive. Thanks

    Since you already bought your copy of NAV, i would suggest to remove the pre-loaded NAV and install your copy. Yes you can remove it from Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
