While I am almost exclusively Linux, I haven't yet persuaded
my wife to make the switch to Linux, though she did agree to
let me put Thunderbird and Firefox on her XP to replace
Internet Exploder and Lookout Express. But now, her computer
has become bogged down to a painfully slow pace (it's not my
fault, really, I didn't sabatoge her machine ;)) Thunderbird,
in particular, is now terribly slow. She recently put Norton
Anti-virus on her machine and I am suspicious that it might
be contributing to the problems because it is always popping
up something saying that it is scanning for viruses.
Sorry to bother y'all with this question, but I wondered if any
of you nice folks could offer suggestions to remedy this severe
slowdown. Might defrag or killing off some temp files help?
