Carleen, Have you either defragged your computer or used Norton to optimize it? I work in information technology and that is the very first thing I do when I have a problem. Most people I work with defrag their computer every week. Defrag is part of the system tools that you can find in your Windows Explorer. Please try that. It might help.
