[Closed] Norton 360 being too clever

A couple of days ago I installed Norton 360 on the pc. Now it has become rather slow on some web pages or just seems to lock up completely. Logins seem to be the main problem.
I suspect that 360 is trying to be too clever but wouldn't have clue where to start looking.
Any suggestions?

Only used Norton years and years ago, but it was like a really awful virus itself - made my computer grind to a halt and was almost impossible to properly get rid of.

I'd try and uninstall it. It's an awful bit of software that you don't want near your PC if you have any choice in the matter.

Avoid avoid avoid. It's awful, and it costs money. Avoid avoid avoid.

^^ what they said.

In some respects, Norton is a virus.
