You only need one antivirus program, running two can cause problems.
AVG is far less demanding on your computer than Norton.
If you plan to remove Norton it can sometimes be difficult.

Please post as much information about your computer, operating system, and problem as possible, what happened prior to problems, etc. Too much info is OK, too little is pointless! Don't just say "My computer doesn't work. What's wrong?"
