[QUOTE="Lurch, post: 450572, member: 6967"] I think if I wanted to have a bad time with a computer I would put 8.1 on it, install Norton and Firefox and then try to do normal things. What sort of computer are we talking about here? I'd imagine the specs aren't great (low memory) and you simply have 3 memory hogs. Firefox is just Firefox, I still use it but that's because I have everything set up the way I want, and the extension I use the most isn't available on Chrome. I'd probably jump ship as Firefox isn't what it once was. Windows 8.1 isn't the worst, but it still gets more bloated over time. Sometimes there is no option really but to just cut your losses and reinstall. Norton is apparently better nowadays than it used to be, I still wouldn't recommend it though. ESET Nod32 every time (or the Smart Security Suite if you want more than just AV), I use it on loads of machines, it isn't free but I have not found any free AV that isn't just adware nowadays. Most of them make machines noticeably slower. [/QUOTE]
