Hi Wendy
It is not a good idea to have two AV programs running at the same time on a
computer so yes I would suggest uninstalling the old Norton AV.
You might also want to check if you have picked up any adware or spyware as
these will often slow a computer up. Try the information at the following
site for help with doing this:

If you wish to work with zip files I would recommend using a program like
WinZip which makes the whole process very easy.
You can download a copy to try from here:

I hope that helps
