I have been using Norton antivirus (renewed my subscription for 1 year during June) but I have found that with norton anti-virus installed on my comp it seems to be making my comp very slow.
At first when I installed norton I only needs 2-3 minutes to start the comp before i can connect to the internet but now i needs almost 10 minutes before i can connect to the net. i tried removing unwanted programmes and files in my comp but to no avail.
worse still, on most occasions, after i connected to the net and when norton is doing auto update my comp will hang for a couple of minutes before resuming to normal.
so may i know what can i do to counter this problem and are there better anti virus tools besides norton? thks
