libecomlodr.dylib

After updating the operative system to the requested Catalina10.15 I have a pop up window "libecomlodr.dylib"will damage your computer.

I tried to deleted it but was not possible.

I tried to run the Symantec Endpoint Protention but was not possible either.

How can I remove this from my computer?

Thanks

Uninstall the Symantec using the official uninstaller, either in-app or look to the developer website for an uninstaller.

It causes nothing but issues on the Mac, and competes directly with Apple own built in security.
