Default Ping: Duck re. Norton

Ok. Did as you suggested. It only took less than a minute, then called
for a "restart", which I allowed. When the computer came back up there
was no Norton to be seen. (Maybe it was uninstalled quickly because I
had never enabled it to begin with).

I got a balloon from Windows telling me I didn't have any anti-virus
programs installed.
The Windows firewall is on, but it said no virus protection software was
detected.

I figured "good", and then proceeded to try and install the AVG software.
The installation started, extracted all the files, etc., then a message
came up saying that it had detected another installed anti-virus program
and didn't recommend continuing unless I got rid of whatever it is. So,
I aborted the installation.

Windows Defender?

Yes, uninstall Defender
