All this stuff controls your conmputer and really slows it down. I would get my own antiivirus , I use a free one from [avast.com](http://avast.com) and the newest version of IE to control the phishing. Adaware will remove any spyware you need to take out. The firewall will screw you up bigtime, and the perforamnce tuneups stuff will also slow your computer down. Try to use as little as possible of each one of these. ---

Norton used to be good, but now way too much overhead. And it will not address some viri. (Plural for virus)
