the Norton stuff on my computer now that I have the AVG and Spyware Doctor? Could Norton be making my laptop run slower? Which is better - Norton or the other two which I just downloaded? Thanks for your help.

Download Spybot S&D, very very good free spyware program.

Pick a mirror and install that.
uninstall spyware doctor. As far as anti-virus, avg is decent. If you want a really good anti-virus (that you have to pay for, but is cost efficient), eTrust (aka CA) internet security is amazing, great protection, and isn't a hog like norton.

My motto " When in doubt, uninstall Norton". I would keep AVG though. And for spyware doctor, unless you have the payed version its useless (all it will do is scan, it doesn't actually remove anything).

well Norton is a system hog, so stick with the new ones, and uninstall Norton.
