Kevin,

1] If there is a conflict with NAV, remove Norton.

1 again] AVG is good, Avast is better.

2] When NAV expires it will clog and slow down your computer like it has
done so far. Remove it!

3] Uninstall NAV before you install Avast.

There is no reason to have Norton on your computer. (If you have Norton
SystemWorks you should remove it for better performance.) Avast is a
complete virual protection system and no other antivirus program is needed.

Good Luck.
