Unistall norton 2004

Now, it has become corrupted. This happened after I started the computer, and got a blue screen saying the registry was being replaced with the last known good copy of the registry. I tried to reinstall NAV , but halfway through the installation, it quits with an error message "Norton Antivirus installation has failed". I can't uninstall it, because the uninstall program is gone, and NAV doesn't appear in Windows Control Panel's list of programs that can be uninstalled.

Symantec's web site does mention these issues, and they give instructions for manually removing the program. It involves removing Registry strings, which I couldn't do, because they weren't there. I did remove a couple of Registry keys, but that didn't help.

I also tried to reinstall after a "clean" boot, that also didn't work. What can I do? I have already spent hours on this.
