    All of Norton's settings are in the Options menu if memory serves me?

    However, I don't think you can completely shut it down if that's what you want to do.

    You would have to go into services and kill each Symantec entry.

    thanks ,,,I'll dig in that direction ,, Norton should make it easy to shut it down ,,, but it overrides every thing ..pops up over other programs ..

    Even Symantec themselves couldn't shut Norton down. It's bloatware. :)

    I like ZA Security Suite, as it's one module for Firewall, AV, and Spyware etc that's easy to kill when you are gaming or whatever. (That's if you are looking for an alternative)
