    I want to get rid of them, they always popup (about six of them) whenever I turn on the computer, they're really pesky and annoying =\. I uninstalled Norton, I think that's why, is there any way of removing those?

    It dioesnt matter, Norton doesnt have pop-ups. get any spyware removers. Search and Destroy, AdAware, or Microsoft Spyware.

    Got those already, they're popups like ' so and so' can't run because of blah blah blah.

    And the symanateks folder won't delete now =[

    I did a proper uninstall. The popups just pop in the middle.

    try a registry cleaner, like cclean or something. those are programs that are trying to run because theyre still in registry, but cant find the program, so it spits that out.....

    nortons doesn't have any of thoes popups

    the only pop ups it has are when it states that it has installed new software and if u have password protect it will ask u to logg in

    i have no idea what that is

    virus or adware are my guesses

    I understand what you mean I believe. They arent popups, they are error messages...

    Try like, going into safe mode and deleting it.

    Also you can try checking if there are services running for norton still...
    Go to Run<Services
    just go down the list and look for something saying Norton..if its there right click, properties, disable. That should stop it.
