This has not been an issue with us and Norton 360. We have way more computer than we need and Norton doesn't seem to bog it down at all, even while updating. Our problem, is every time the computer comes out of sleep mode, or just sits long enough without us doing anything, it will freeze up kind of. Nothing on it works but the pointer. I can drag it all over the screen but nothing else, including the buttons on the mouse work. If I hit ctrl/alt/del, it beeps at me, the screen goes black, then the prompt comes up after about 20 seconds. It takes another 40 seconds for the option you choose to do anything from there.... It is faster to get my computer working that way though...... That's what's going on.
