I have a Dell Precision M90, T7600 Intel Core, 2 Duo processor.
Processor speed 2.3 GHz, Memory 4GB, Harddrive 100 GB. I am using Windows Professional as my OS. It is only 3 months old. But lately it is running slow. Especially since I installed Norton Security Suites on it. I have wireless High speed Internet through AOL. I contacted Dell as it is under warrenty, but they have not gotten back to me. Any ideas on what could be going on with it?

Well it could be a multiple number of things. U have a pretty damn fast computer to start with. Possibly too many programs, too many processes running at startup/always, viruses, adware/spyware infections, tons of possibilities. Also the New Norton, and pretty much all norton products are known as power hogs they use huge amounts of ram, and slow down ur processor a lot. If you want to learn where to get programs to help with removal of this stuff try download.com they have tons of tips for begineers and its really easy to use.

U may try to disable norton anti-virus to see if it improves the matters. If so, report the matter to Norton to remedy the situation by modifying their software.
