RErun setup. You cannot just drag the folder onto the other computer
because things such as services, registry entries and plugins don;t get
installed.

run setup you mean from anti-norton directory?
there isnt any .exe for setup so what do I do (this is not obvious )? even
the shortcut for ANV doesnt point to a .exe
