   Try deleting all of your cookies and Internet temp files. When you surf the web you will receive cookies, they track you and send junk (pop-ups) .then run a full scan using your av and malware software. Kill your screen saver, and drop your custom wall paper to save memory.

   You said you scanned your computer for viruses, but have you done the same for any spyware (using Ad-Aware, SpyBot: Search & Destroy and such apps)?

   Additionally you may use some applications that help to optimize your computer. The best application I have heard about is called "Advanced System Optimizer" (I’m planning to take advantage of it myself soon)

   Sounds like hard drive problem, or even xp windows need to be reinstalled.

   1. Delete norton and get avast.
   2. Get adaware.
   3. Get perfect disk and defragment it.
   4. If any viruses were found and were failed to be removed reformat the comuter.
   5. get new drivers if available.
