Answer 1

Get rid of Norton! It doesn't make your computer faster, but slower. Any antivirus program is better than Norton. Here you have some excellent and free antivirus programs. Just make your choice:

Answer 3

It will actually make your computer run slower, especially on startup. It takes horsepower to run the antivirus and scan your disks.

It's a bit like putting armor plating on your car because someone is randomly shelling the highway. You'll go a bit slower hour by hour, but when you eventually get hit (and you will), the bullets will bounce off, instead of destroying the car.

Answer 4

no it won't but if you ever want to remove norton, you will get to know, if you don't already, how deeply a program can get into your computer. I found files long after deleting the program and I did it the so-called right way

Answer 5

no it does not

norton 2007 is complete crap

if you want a decent anti virus
use McAfee or AVG
McAfee is paid and is the best
AVG is free and is simple and fast

Norton 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007 make your computer lag like crazy

Answer 6

It will only make it faster if there were indeed viruses on your machine that were slowing it down to start. It can not make it faster just because it is on your box... In fact it may appear to slow ya down while it does its work.

Answer 7

no it does not make ur computer faster by deleting viruses it just stops viruses from infecting and crashing ur computers hard drive it has nothing 2 do with how or so fast ur computer goes
