To uninstall your current Virus scanning software Windows 2000 or XP*:
1. Restart your computer in SAFE mode:
a. As soon as your computer makes the “beep” noise, start pressing the F8 key very frequently.
b. This will bring up a boot menu, select Safe Mode from the list.
c. If you have Windows XP, it will then probably make you pick your operating system – just select the one that is in the list.
d. When you get all the way into Windows, it should let you know that your computer is running in Safe mode. If this is not the case, restart your computer and try again (sometimes it can take a couple of tries to get into Safe mode.)
2. Once you are in Safe mode, go to Start, Settings, Control Panel and double-click on Add/Remove Programs.
3. Look for anything that says “antivirus,” “McAfee,” “Symantec,” “Norton,” “AVG,” or “Sophos.”
4. For each of these items in the list, click on Change/Remove or Remove.
5. After you have completed this, you can restart your computer, and it will return to normal mode.
6. Finally, proceed with the installation of the ePolicy Orchestrator software.
