Damn you Symantec

I hooked up a new wireless router at my sisters place today. Jessie's Vista laptop could not attach to the wireless even tho my XP laptop could connect without trouble. I asked Courtney to get her Vista laptop and she connected without problems. After a barrage of questions I asked if she had any Norton/Symantec products. Jessie said she uninstalled them a long ago. An internet search revealed that the uninstall of Symantec 360 doesn't work correctly but Symantec provides a tool to uninstall completely. After running the tool the laptop returned to normality... well as normal as Vista can get anyway.
The moral of this story; Symantec = Satan.
