Bob,
I have a current Norton's on the sick machine and an out of subscription Norton's on the well one - go figure. Also I ran FixIt Pro and it didn't show any improvement. I am going to install a firewall - not sure if I'll stick with Norton's.

I'm curious as to why you don't run an anti virus program on both. It
is pre tty important since both will be on the 'net.
Get a good virus scanner and spyware remover and run it on the "bad" pc
before putting it on the router. You could possibly corrupt the router too.
