Default How do you remove the Norton expiration Nag Screen?

For about a month now the Norton nag screen pops up when I am right in
the middle of doing anything. It tells me that Norton is about to
expire and click here to renew.

Renew it, remove it or contact Symantec Tech support for help with their
program.

Better still dump Norton and get the free AVG and Zone Alarm.

Its in the registry. Symantec's removal programs do not remove it.
The renewal is for autoupdates, not the program itself. The program will
still run without a renewal. AV definitions and other updates are not
incorporated once the renewal expiration date has passed.
The "nag" is there for your own protection.
