Why can I not re-install Norton security programs after reloading Windows XP and Microsoft IE 7.0?

My computer crashed from a virus or other faults I received after setting up SBC DSL. Norton antivirus protection had been downloaded and working. I installed MSIE 7.0 and AT%26amp;T Yahoo uses IE 6.0. I am using the AT%26amp;T provided disc to re-install DSL and online files. The download just never happems after it starts. What's going on here anyway?

When you reinstall windows, be sure to visit microsoft to get all your updates before you try and install any software. Some of the windows updates require you to install, reboot, then revisit windows update, you may need to visit the site after rebooting 3 times before you get all of the updates........

Install necessary programs to get on the internet, once your on the net get all the necessary windows updates then try to install Norton.....

possibly version conflict or a older version of your norton..
i assume you are running this on a single computer. if you install programs like that, you usually have to type in a code so it can only be installed once, on one computer. call them and explain your situation, and they should help you out.
When you uninstall Nortons, some registry keys get left behind and it stops you installing Nortons. Go to www.symantec.com and download and run their free removal tool. The you should be able to reinstall it without any problems.
