XP Performance Very Slow

One day I opened up over 14 internet explorer browsers
(about 3 weeks ago) at which point it would not allow me to
open up anymore. (I think a "low on virtual memory" warning
may have come up then) Also at that point, loading IE
browser windows and browsing from page to page became
extremely slow and still is extremely slow. Send/Receive
with Outlook is also very slow although it is relatively
quick to load Outlook. Netscape is slow to load, but quick
to browse from page to page. I am not sure what is causing
the problem. I have tried anti-virus, anti-spyware,
anti-trojan and they've turned up nothing. Other computers
on my network have not reported any of these problems. Any
help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so
much in advance.

sad and desperate,
David

Never mind. It looks like it was due to the Norton
antivirus software. I really do not recommend the use of
any Norton software with Microsoft products. I have had
various compatability issues with them in the past.
