Installed what? If Norton go to:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...05033108162039
and rid yourself from this resource hog.

Then treat yourself with a top-notch 'plain-vanilla' AV application:
AOL Active Virus Shield (a Kaspersky product)

(Do NOT download the toolbar offered during installation!)
