You have screwed your system up. You ran a registry cleaner which is a big nono. You listened to an idiot rep that tried things at random rather than diagnosing. It's probably beyond repair in any reasobable effort. You also installed Norton that tries to be complicated for no good reason.
Reinstall windows, download an free AV program from www.grisoft.com (it's a bit hard to find the free one on their home page because they'd rather you give them money so here's a direct link http://www.grisoft.com/doc/289/lng/us/tpl/tpl01).
Throw norton out. I snapped their last disk in 1/2. And they gave me free copies.

Installing in safe mode doesn't help and I can't edit the changes manually
because they had me make more changes than I can remember. I tried the
ccleaner and it came up with 700+ errors, but fixing them didn't help. Even
after repairing, it comes up with 447 errors of unused file extensions,
whatever that means.
To elaborate on my initial problem, the reps had me make numerous changes to
the allow/deny in the registry. I'm assuming one or several of those changes
caused my problem.
Any ideas?

I'm running Windows XP Home Edition and I think I am having a problem with
my
registry. I purchased and installed NSW 2006, but I kept getting an error
when I selected the autoprotect option. Anyway, in their attempt to
resolve
the issue four different support reps from Symantec had me alter the
registry. After the last changes were in place, I attempted to reinstall
NSW. It wouldn't let me finish the installation. Now I can't install any
new programs and programs like Windows Media Player have quit working
properly. It attempts to load codecs to play certain files, but it says
it
fails. I tried to manually install codecs, but as I stated before, I
cannot
install anything. I can't reinstall Media Player either, due to the same
fact. I have tried installing several programs, both from disc and
downloads, and nothing will install. Several of them quit while trying to
register dll and other files.
All this happened immediately after the changes to the registry. My main
problem is that they also had me run the W32.Klez removal tool. This
program
recommends shutting off the restore option before running, which I did.
When
you shut off the restore it also removes any saved restore points, so I
don't
have any restore points to go back to. I've contacted Symantec, but they
said either I followed the instructions wrong or the rep made the wrong
changes. Either way, I have no idea what the registry should look like at
this point.
Is there any way to fix this? Thanks so much for any help you could
provide.
