      No! The Norton should extract the old file automatically.

      I installed 2005 over my 2004 about four months ago. I had some problems with it loading when I started up the computer, so I basically extracted it and reloaded it.

          I downloaded it from the web site. I was afraid that since I did not have the CD, that I would have to pay to another download, but it was actually in an unused desktop folder.

          Try to avoid calling Norton, if you can, they charge $40 for technical support (cocks, half the time it is their fault.).

          I would try to shut everything down first, then start up and try to reload. If your CD drive isn't reading, that could be another problem. But don't delete tho old Norton if you haven't already. Maybe the CD could be defective, try taking it back to the store and exchanging also.

                    Dude, if your CD drive isn't reading it, it has to be bad software (exchange it) or you need to get your CD drive looked at.

                      Does ANYONE on this site look like they perform Freelance M$ PC Help Desk support?

                      ...Kinda like going to CNET.com forums and posting a 'Vote for your favorite album from the six-pack poll'...

                          Mate, I dont own Nortons Internet Security System, but look for any files called "Setup" or any obvious looking icons that might do something. Right click/properties see if its an exe file. 99% of
                          the time it will be an exe file that does the job. You shouldnt
                          have to uninstall old version. New version will detect and update.

                          Can you manually access the files on the CD ? Or is it setup to
                          Autorun ?? Go to my computer and right click on your CD,
                          then fuck around looking for setup exe files or install, or
                          some obvious looking icon.....

                          The only other thing I can think of is that perhaps XP (which has
                          its own firewall) is stopping the installation thinking its an
                          attempt to violate your internet connection.... That might be
                          worth checking out too..

                            Shut down thw XP firewall before you put the install disk in. If it doesn't autorun you can make it by clicking start, click on run, and run D: (not sure on the prompt for that)

                              Why is this in the locker room? Who is actually modding these days?
