Norton's utilities are highly CPU intensive, particularly when
scanning. More so than other antivirus software and the like I've
seen. Naturally the act of virus scanning in general is intensive,
it's just more noticeable with Norton.

I thought I'd post here in case it is a Jaws problem and there is a solution, I'm running Jaws 7.0 with Windows-XP home with ServicePack 2.
Incidentally I installed Norton 2006 on my laptop about 3 months ago and have not noticed the same behavior there.
Thanks. Troy
