Norton AV slows my system to a crawl

Help.
After my daily virus scan with NAV my system slows to a crawl taking 15 secs to open IE and OE. Shutting down the system and restarting clears the problem until next time I do a virus check.
The fault became apparent a couple of weeks ago around the time that I added 2mb or DDR2 to my system. I also downloaded Adobe Photoshop Album starter at the same time as I downloaded the latest A Reader.

I have been on the Symantec chatline for about 90 minutes and they cleared my temp files and increased the size of something else all to no avail.

Any suggestions?
