It's because you need to install the
Norton Removal Tool from Symantec to remove Norton, you can't uninstall it directly from your Control Panel, as it would leave things behind, and that's why I wouldn't even try to remove it that way.
sir i have already tried doing that with norton removal tool " , but it gets automatically closed , and still it is not removed
And did you try before you went to use the Control Panel method, or after you tried uninstalling through the Control Panel?

please help me , i prefferred asking here rather than creating a new thread
There's an option to set the home page in your browser. And it came with you installing something that you didn't uncheck most probably. Why reinstall?
Go to your browser options and change the homepage. Also, there should be a "BearShare" toolbar in your programs folder somewhere most likely, possibly under a weird name for a directory if you don't see it directly in your Program directory. Uninstall from Control Panel if you see an entry for it.

Tell me the steps you've tried to change the homepage, it can't re-change your homepage without asking for permission anyways. Uninstall BearShare as well from the control panel. And no need to call me sir
I'm just a member trying to help.

Don't delete the folder... If you do that to remove things from your computer you'll clutter your system real fast. Get into the habit of finding the uninstall files. If there's not one from your control panel there may be an uninstall file inside that BearShare folder.
Make sure you ALWAYS, use the uninstaller. NEVER just delete a program. Things get left behind in the registry when you do that.
