Norton 360 v5 slows computer


















Maybe some files have been damaged, and that can cause troubles View Accepted Solution in Context. Thanks for reply, my norton version : 5. Do you use the backup feature? Sometimes it can slow sown the PC during startup. Please try this out: 1. Open Norton 2. Click on Settings 3. On the right side disable backup 4. Save Settings 5. Close Norton 6. Reboot Let us know the results.

Also as Scott wrote, can you give us some specs about your machine? Your hardware should not have problems with Norton And it is also a bit strange that only startup manager cause this trouble. If the second, was there any preinstalled AV software on the machine? Dick Evans Guru Norton-Titan Linus22 wrote: Sorry for late reply. Thank you Hi, Your available installs may reduce.

This thread is closed from further comment. Please follow these instructions for posting a screenshot for review. We can have a look at what is there to help you determine what is legitimate and what should be removed. For what it is worth, since dropping my Norton Core subscription and using Norton I get a bit of a mix. Sometimes the PC flies faster than ever and then suddenly it slows way down. But with that said what I have noticed or so it seems , the part that has slowed up is the screen updates.

I have experienced that while the little arrow is chasing its tail or various other displays, the software step has already completed a while ago. Which, to me seems to be more of the method perhaps on how the software is pulling down into video memory the next "window". I am not sure if "Windows" still works this way or not, but the illusion of speed was that all of the various windows were preloaded into upper memory and whatever window was required to be viewed would be pulled from video memory into your screen area.

Hence the name Windows. This was in the days of "extended" or "expanded" lim memory and the lotus software, I think. It was all the result of a flaw into the chip that use to reside on the keyboard that had a 64 bit hole into upper memory and became the place that the DOS kernel resided.

Well, just a thought, it may be needing an update. Also it may or may not be related to Norton all. Well, at least not Peter Norton. I would make sure all software is up to date or maybe try rolling back a video driver and see. One more note, the way I found this was while the screen was taking forever, I have no patience and hit the escape key and POOF everything was good.

HAHAHa one more. Use to be that when a program closed it sometimes would not release the windows that were still occupying upper memory or non viewable memory So when you opened another program it would sometimes try to write at an address still in use and would create a "general protection fault" error.

Maybe that still happens and we just don't get the message? Having a look at what is being detected should provide a clearer picture of what is going on. Thanks for the the alternative view and suggestions.

I had few starts but all would not loadup. Screenshots are PNG are not accepted. Foto in JPEG format neither. I even tried a ZIP File! Read SoulAsylum 's post here again. Rab60 Download the free copy of Malwarebytes , install then run a full system scan. I'm not sure whether you can get the program to run under your native language in SA. Check the general settings in the program when you install it for that option. Its a free trial and will still run after that trial expires as a scanner which you can run manually.

There isn't a purchase requirement. I'm interested to see what it finds if anything at all. I am still trying to send the sceershots, but I do not understand why it dose not work! This entry represents a software "crack" has made its way onto your system, representing possible malware infection. How are you populating the startup entry list where the items were found?

Using task manager, a utility program? You never replied to that question previously. Use the IMCE button which looks like the photo frame icon in the comment tool bar to select the file then click upload. It will appear in the comments portion of the post you are creating. I believe that is where your misstep is taking place. Sorry for the delay, finally did it after compressing the files.

I just did what you mentioned in your post on the 20 NOV, my Norton Utilities is not active to clear all these enteries:. I am now realy confused of what we are doing here! I hope I did not do to many wrong things. The detected threat from Malwarebyt is now quarantined and I thought it is ok now. I do not understand the post with many link. You indeed are helping. What post with many links are you referring to that is confusing?

Your screenshots came through as we wanted. I was just curious as to what program you are using to see all the startup entries on the system. Thanks for sharing the info. So a small bit about what you are seeing. The first is when Windows the operating system takes over the boot processes and load so the computer becomes functional.

The problem then becomes, what ISN'T legitimate. The entry that Malwarebytes is the one we are concerned with. Have MBAM remove that entry and restart the system.

It will clear it from its history and the computer. Done deal. Some will start when Windows starts. Windows will present a screen for you where you can select from 4 things. Click on Task Manager. See screenshot provided. The process tab has been selected for use. These are what I am seeing in my task manager on my Dell gaming rig at present.

Nothing there isn't a legitimate process. They CAN indicate a source of malware and other issues. Open yours and watch for processes using CPU and other resources in an inappropriate manner. Make a note of what those process names are and which resource is being abused. Lets us know what those are if anything is a concern on your end. How dose this work?

I did the scan and was put in quarantine, is this what you mean, or should I do more? I will be purchasing a new MS Office or and install it soon, where is a legitimate site I can find this for a good price? I don't want to interfere with SoulAsylum's troubleshooting, but if you use a free utility from Microsoft Sysinternals called Process Explorer it can give you additional information that isn't available with the built-in Windows Task Manager.

For example, when Process Explorer launches it can be configured to upload every process running on your computer to VirusTotal. Any suspicious or malicious process running on your system should have a poor score e. If you want to add additional columns to the Process Explorer interface e.

Click through all the tabs e. Be sure you also check the applications that start automatically when you log in to your computer at Settings Apps Startup.

Each application is rated high, medium or low according to the impact it has on system resources. However, I still have a few programs that I want to keep but don't use on a regular basis e. If you right-click in the column headings you will see a list of additional columns e.

If you aren't sure what Startup programs are safe to disable post a screenshot for SoulAsylum and they might be able to provide a few suggestions.

Once you've finished cleaning up all the unnecessary programs running on your computer I'd also recommend you post in a reputable free malware removal forum and have your computer checked by a trained malware removal specialist see my post in Greg Michalik's Possible Scam?

Just note that most of these malware removal sites require that you uninstall all pirated software from your computer before they will diagnose your computer. Also note that you should only post in one of these sites and follow their instructions until the malware removal specialist assigned to your case has confirmed that your system is free of malware.

Thank you AS and Imacri. Rab60 By now this name should be corrected to Rab Therefore, you should check whether the computer is still slow, after uninstalling Norton. If you have tried the above methods and make sure that Norton slows down your computer, you can read the following content to know how to solve the problem.

It may be common to almost all antivirus programs that an antivirus program is incompatible with another one.

They will cause scanning conflicts or consumption of a large amount of system memory. Norton is in such a case. Norton security will slow down the system performance if any other antivirus program is installed on the computer system. In this case, you should disable or uninstall the other antivirus program.

If you have only installed Norton, you should try disabling Windows Defender. When Norton begins to scan your computer for malicious files, it checks everything, including downloaded files, the registry, system folders and images.

It's a lot to scan, which can cause CPU slowdowns. The slowdown also occurs when the program is updating new virus and spyware definitions. It requires a lot of memory to access the Norton server and install updates; therefore, most of the system resources are used by the program. However, the slowdown will disappear after the scanning or update process is completed.
