I am really beginning to dislike Dell. They're good machines and all, but they come loaded with SOOOO much crap.

I'm in the Add/Remove Programs panel, and I'm uninstalling stuff left and right. I get down to the Norton Internet Security, and hit Remove. It pops up with a windows asking if I accept the EULA. Uh, no, I have no intention of accepting the license for software I don't want, so I hit NO. It then informs me that I have to uninstall the program. DUH!!!

I found the perfect solution to that last week. You order a Dell computer without any software installed. It's cheaper that way too. You install only what you want to. If you already have licenses, or are using stuff that needs no license, the software ends up being free. You do not have to pay for stuff you don't want, even from Dell.

Oh and I agree with you about Norton. They are a worse headache than even Microsloth itself. Such hubris and arrogance should not go unpunished.
