    Get rid of Norton.

    Use MSE.

    Microsoft Security Essentials - Microsoft Windows

    Defragment the hard drive 4 or 5 times.

    Run Disk cleanup 2 to 3 times.

    Still unhappy ?

    Re install windows.

    Throw it out the window if it makes you feel better, I would, I hate laptops :)
