Comments on: ESET Smart Security + Windows Vista = BSOD http://www.edcottrell.com/2008/01/17/eset-smart-security-windows-vista-bsod/ musings of a conservative Texas attorney on law, faith, politics, technology, and life Sat, 04 Feb 2012 02:48:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Ed http://www.edcottrell.com/2008/01/17/eset-smart-security-windows-vista-bsod/comment-page-1/#comment-36710 Ed Sat, 19 Jan 2008 18:04:23 +0000 http://www.edcottrell.com/2008/01/17/eset-smart-security-windows-vista-bsod/#comment-36710 Thanks for the tip. I downloaded the removal tool, but will probably stick with McAfee until graduation. As much as I dislike McAfee, it is free. Interestingly, McAfee is also catching a <em>huge</em> number of infected files (all of them very old, archived spam used in my spam filter development) that Norton apparently missed dozens of times, despite the fact that Norton was always kept up to date. That is disturbing. Thanks for the tip. I downloaded the removal tool, but will probably stick with McAfee until graduation. As much as I dislike McAfee, it is free.

Google for "symnrt" and download the removal tool from symantec.com, then restart the computer, and try reinstalling ESS.
