Uninstall Norton AntiVirus?

The 90 days with Norton AntiVirus on my new Dell desktop are almost up. I have NAV 2001 on a new CD and want to install it. Should I uninstall the old version first?

    I installed my Norton Security 2001, over my OEM Nav, on my 4100. { anti-virus, fire wall, & ad blocking] No problem with installation. There was quite a bit of talk a couple months ago about reinstalling your OEM Nav off of your resource disk, & getting another 90 days free. In fact I did this,before I went to a cable modem, & needed a fire wall. Symantec was offering "I think" a $3.99 extension to Dell users because of all the screaming about buyers not being told about Nav's updates only lasting for 90 days.

    two people, two different answers! Uninstalling Nav is easy, so if that would make you feel at ease, by all means do it. Bob
