Just a question though for PC Antivirus. I am using Shaw's Home Secure or whatever (hey, it was free..) I am wondering if anyone notices if it makes your PC run slower? I have a year and a half old Toshiba Satellite (du core, 2.4ghz yada yada yada) and I swear it runs like a piece of crap these days. Extremely slow loads on everything, slow to bootup and load, just all around slooowwww. I use my laptop for internet and MSN mainly, no gaming, not much downloading. I can't recall if my PC started going slower after the install, so I just thought I'd ask if anyone else notices this. Sorry to hijack.

Shaw slowed mine to a crawl, big time. Uninstalled it and machine sped back up.
