The proper way to remove it is
Unplug your Network Cable or stay off the Internet (Dial-Up)
1. Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel - Norton Anti-Virus
2. Reboot
3. Revisit Add/Remove programs - Uninstall Live Update
4. Remove LiveReg
5. Based on Anti-Virus version, go to Symantec and download a
stand-alone tool RNav (get the one for your version) & run
6. Search (All Files & Hidden) for keyword "Symantec"
Likely you'll find two folders - Delete both
7. Reboot
8. Install your new version Anti-Virus
