Can you give the output of:

uname -a; lsb_release -a; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade; sudo apt-get --reinstall install nano

Thanks

i'm guessing all the programs you're trying to install are for windoze. those most likely won't run on linux systems like ubuntu. however, you can try installing them via wine. i'm pretty sure norton doesn't make their software for linux, so that won't run. what norton software are you trying to install anyways? if it's antivirus, it won't work on linux systems. if you MUST have an antivirus, you can install clamav. ubuntu already has a built in firewall.

Can you help with this problem?
