How Do I Download Yahoo's Norton Antivirus vis-à-vis Yahoo Protection?

I have Yahoo! Online Protection (including Anti-Virus and Spyware plus more) as part of my ATT/Yahoo Internet connectivity package. I am getting a message to upgrade my Anti-Virus to Norton Antivirus (the message is from Yahoo and the software is on Yahoo's site). BUT... the install verbiage says that I should UNINSTALL all current Antivirus programs prior to install, else my computer may mess up. Has anyone gone through this process? I would think that if Yahoo! is inviting the upgrade that their install process would handle "everything" but I don't want to assume anything. Am I better off ignoring the upgrade opportunity, or, if not, how should I proceed? I don't know how to uninstall Yahoo! Online Protection - especially without uninstalling the entire package (Email Protection, Pop Up Blocker, etc.), which I want to keep. Thanks

I downloaded the 鈥渦pgrade鈥?Dec 15 and had all kinds of problems with it. I finally contacted AT%26T Yahoo on Dec 18. They have suspended all further downloads of the Norton product to try and fix the bugs. I was told to go to Windows http://onecare.live.com and sign up for the 90 day free trial while AT%26T Yahoo try to resolve their problems.



I uninstalled the entire AT%26T Yahoo protection suite, but it left a few bits behind. Then I installed One Care and everything now works fine.
