Down at the bottom left of your keyboard you'll see two keys next to the one with a ? on it. You're post would be much more readable if you had used them occasionally.

There are also two keys at either end of the bottom row which you'll find give you access to capital letters, they're useful too.

Personally I dislike norton on the whole.
Sounds like its not saving the settings, not sure why though.

Free alternative would be Avast! for anti-vir

Avast antivirus.
Threatfire along with PC Tools Firewall Plus.
Superantispyware and Ad aware antispyware.

Thats all you need, they're all free and kick nortons ass.

I also dont like norton. I find the tool on thew norton site to get rid of it. I find it takes hold of your system. I now use a different one and its miles better.
