Does Norton give you good instructions on how to remove
offending entries from your Registry ?? If not, then
visit www.symantec.com, select "search", look for "how to
back up your Registry", do that, then search on your
offending files (spyware.manan, adware.istbar,...) for
probably better detailed instructions on the removal than
Norton provides. Since Norton IS Symantec, you might be
eligible for direct live support as well.
