Computer woes solved (for now)!

Between doing a system restore and attempting to remove both Norton SystemWorks and Norton Internet Security -- both removals failed -- I was able to restore my ability to surf the web, download email, and read LJ from my desktop computer.

I still should try to remove and reinstall the Norton products, as pervasive as they are. [Updated 20-Sep 12:40 EDT] Thankfully Symantec has a Norton Removal tool available for download on their website. I'll try that tonight.

When did Symantec jump the shark? Their Norton Utilities for DOS were some of the best around.
