Weird Errors



A couple things started happening on my PC last night. I have Norton
Internet Security 2006 (been running okay since I installed it back in
December) and all started after they put out an update to Norton Anti-Virus.
Here they are:

1--If I click Start>Run>REGEDIT, it tells me REGEDIT is being used by
another program????
2--If I do a CTRL-ALT-DEL and click Task Manager, It does nothing.
3--A svchost.exe was added to my Programs>Startup Group,
4--I have Limewire Pro 4.9 and it now starts on it's own. Each time I close
it, it restarts again, even after PC Restarts, I checked the settings, not
set to do this. Oh, and this started after svchost was added to my Startup
Group I mentioned in #3 above.

I've deleted Norton entirely and had to get in Safe Mode to run REGEDIT or
to delete Limewire.

Any suggestions?
