    I'm running Norton 360 premier edition, which actually sped up the laptop, and protects you from viruses etc. If you loaded microsoft office, that alone will bog down your computer. It runs a program in the background that I have to shut off every time I boot my computer up. Wouldn't mind a link to those registry fixes, though I use a freeware program called Ccleaner that seems to do a good job!
