After installing norton internet security 2006 some web site just won't load or takes very long times to load.
ie) t-mobile.com won't load.
Even after disable both Antivirus and IS.

I am thinking, maybe, norton tweaked the IE secrurity setting.

Does anyone have same problem? or Know how to change setting?

I been using this so call "resource hog" for years now.
For 2005, I could just turn off privacy control, block ad, and permit all connection for IE will just do the trick.

For 2006, I changed the setting to just like 2005 and it won't just cut it.

Anybody experiencing same problem or know how to change setting?

Do I need to finally move on to different firewall?
I've tried Zonealarm, Tiny and didn't like it.

Ad-aware is shit it doesn't work for serious malware/adware such as SpySheriff or smthn, I recommend Spy Sweeper and ewido anti-malware, you'll never have problems with spyware again (Trojan remover is good too for cleaning serious threats)

As for the antivirus NOD32 is good but I'm using avast right now and it's quite good, AVG is v. good also

Are you using the Free or Pro version of Avast. Never heard of it, just looked at the site and it looks promising.
