Dear all,

I've loaded Norton Antivirus on my friends Dell computer and now it runs so slowly the computer is unusable. I've subsequently heard that this can be a problem and that trying to uninstall NAV using the uninstall programme is not very effective.

Has anyone got any advice on what to do!?!

many thanks,

Neil
