Before you install the Norton Antivirus software, you must
uninstall any existing copies of antivirus software on your
computer. Your computer may not function properly if your existing
antivirus software is not removed before you install this
software.
Antivirus software may include the following:
• Norton Antivirus
• McAfee VirusScan (also known as Virex)
• Any other antivirus software
1. Under the File menu on the top toolbar, click
on Find. When the window opens, enter the name of your
current antivirus software. When the results are given, drag ALL
relating antivirus software items into the Trash bin.
2. Close all of your programs and restart your computer.
After you have removed any existing antivirus software and restarted your computer,
you are now ready for the installation process.
Note for users who have enabled Administrative login
rights: Before you begin the installation process, have your Administrator
login and password ready. You will be prompted for this
information when you insert the CD.
1. Insert the Norton AntiVirus Installer CD into your CDROM
drive.
2. After a few seconds, the Temple logo will appear. If this does not happen after
one minute, perform one of the following steps depending on your version of Norton AntVirus:
- Double-click on the yellow TEMPLE SAV 2.0 icon on your Desktop, and then double-click on the Install Symantec Antivirus icon, or
- Double-click
on the Norton Antivirus 9.0 icon on your Desktop, and then double-click on the Start Here icon.
3. You will then be prompted to accept the disclaimer. In order to
install the Symantec Antivirus software, you must agree to the
terms of use. If you agree with the terms, click on I Agree.
4. Once you’ve agreed to the terms of use, you will be prompted to
choose the software version appropriate for your computer. Click the appropriate button for your
computer's operating system.
Note: If you use the
classic mode feature that allows you to run OS 9, only install this
software in OS X by selecting the OS X option.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, the
Symantec Installer will start. As the installer program runs, accept the defaults as you are
prompted.
You may be required to restart your computer again in order to complete installation.
