And the Adventure Continues ...

Response time has dropped considerably, and I haven't even tried to log onto AOL yet. I'm thinking part of the reason is that there are 3 security-software programs on this laptop, even though 2 of them aren't working correctly (the Norton that came pre-loaded can't run a live update because there's a coding bug, and while Spyware Doctor will run a scan, it won't remove any Bad Things it finds without a registration number -- i.e., a purchased, licensed version of Spyware Doc, as opposed to the free trial version I had. This only started yesterday.)

That leaves AVG, which is running and probably disagreeing vehemently with Norton and S.D every step of the way.

In other news, sunny and warm. Chango is downstairs, lying on the cool foyer tiles. Huge nightmare at 5:45 this morning (you don't even want to know). Gah.

ETA: Have uninstalled Spyware Doctor and response time has jumped exponentially. Sheesh. Looking at ways to uninstall Norton.

I have removed Norton twice without any problems, but that was after the subscriptions had expired. I remember Corgiguy once having it give him fits when he tried to uninstall it. He said it's sort of a crapshoot -- sometimes it's troublesome and sometimes not. I hope it goes okay for you.
