Remove Symantec AV 10 PDF Print E-mail

I will be rolling out Symantec's new SEP 11 soon and I need to remove the previous Symantec AV install.
This Script should work on all SAV 9-10 installs.

This script can be easily modified to run remotely. Maybe in the near future I will add this functionality.
