My wife's computer is very, very sluggish when opening programs or most other functions.
When the computer is booted up, Norton anti-virus software does not boot up completely. The "Auto-protect" function is always off and has to be enabled and the "Automatic live update" is off, but will not come on when you try to enable it. You can, however, manually download updates.
I did follow all the suggestions from your starter page and though I did find many spyware issues, it has made no difference in the performance of the computer or the problems with Norton.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Here is the hijack this file.

Hi Byrd,

Just looking over your log I see some suspect antispyware lines...

I would remove all the anit-spyware and the norton anit-virus and internet security(I believe I saw that too). Replace Norton with Avast! anti-virus... it has a very nice boot-time scan feature that I use quite a bit...

Turn off the System Restore feature(??) in XP... Look in System props...

REboot and let Avast! scan....

Then follow the direction on the main forum page to the letter.

That will get rid of most of the baddies.... then post again with the ones it can't get.

HTH,

Don
