Removing Kaspersky Internet Security (KIS) 2011

My Norton 360 disc just arrived and I have 6 days left on KIS so I need to understand what to expect now. In the past, when KIS was uninstalled in preparation for the latest version I often had to use a "removal tool" from their library to make sure I was starting from a clean slate.

 

Do I have to do anything special like that to install Norton 360? I'm hopeful that a simple uninstall routine under Windows Control Panel will suffice.

Hi Jaygreg

 

You can use Kaspersky removal tool to remove KIS 

then insert the disc and install norton 360

You can even uninstall KIS from control panel but we may have some files in registry left behind 

hence i suggest you to run kaspersky removal tool 

and then install norton from your installation disc 

 

keep me on the loop

Hi jaygreg,

 

You will be best to run the Kaspersky Removal Tool before installing N360.
