Incredibly slow computer

Hi.

My computer 's performance and internet connection has significantly slowed down since I downloaded and installed Norton security 360 (90 day trial) two days ago. (I have a Vista 32 bit)

To try and resolve this I have scanned my whole computer for any bugs or unwanted programs, i have also deleted any old cookies, etc. I have also reset my internet explorer settings. But nothing seems to work.

I have contacted my Internet service provider and they say there is no problem from their side.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for the lightning fast response. I will uninstall Norton and see what happens. Is there an anti-virus or internet security program that you recommend?
I can only tell you what I use, and thats ZoneAlarm, Avira, a-squared, Spybot, & Spywareblaster all free. I was using AVG free but it really slowed stuff down so I now use Avira. I like it. I've had 3 pop ups from Avira telling me a bugaboo is trying to enter so I just hit deny and say goodbye bugaboo :)
