Jays, when did this happen to you? I'm just curious
because maybe some worm or something got out that they
haven't really made public yet and we are victims. I
believe my computer started acting up last Sunday or
Monday.
 
It is my sisters pc, its an e machine and it has been
slowing up for a while now maybe as much as a few months,
interesting it is affecting your norton anti virus have
you tried re-installing it?
 
Well this morning before I left for work I had about 30
minutes to putz around. I uninstalled norton and when I
attempted to reinstall it using the disc we bought way
back in like 2000...an error came up that that version
isn't compatible with XP. it gave me a link to follow to
get the updated drivers, but I need to go on one of my
other computers to do it since my internet doesn't not
work on that computer. so when i get home tonight and
have a chance to look at that i will hopefully get norton
reinstalled...but without the internet i can't update the
virus definintions. the good thing is they were updated
on june 30th which should be recent enough, but i would
still like to. can your sister's pc connect to the
internet?
 
What happens in Safe Mode? What information can you get from Task Manager
(Ctrl+Alt+Del)?

Hope this helps.
