If I could I would cancel Norton.

The problem is I don't know what to replace it with.
AVG Free. Automatic updates. http://free.grisoft.com/

avast! is also good.

JimH,
Can you see how much memory AVG uses. McAfee uses about 25,000K

Less than a quarter of that.



That would have been my guess. McAfee is a memory hog.

A quick look shows AVG processes use about 30k. I don't see that as
an issue.

I think you misread the process information.

There are three AVG process typically running:

avgamsvr.exe
avgcc.exe
avgupsvc.exe

Depending what AVG is doing when you look the total can vary from about
2MB
to about 5MB.

I've also got guard.exe running using 23k, and a quick google showed
that to be an AVG module. Let me know if it's malware.

Do you have the pay version of AVG. I'm using the free version and there is
no guide.exe included.
