Thanks, Andy- I found "System information", then went to "hardware resources" and then "memory" and got stuck. I tried right arrow, enter, F6, and Tab and read around with the Jaws cursor and... well, I'm stuck. Any ideas?

As for checking memory, hit WINDOWS key, go to Programs, Accessories, System Tools, System Information. This is for XP. i don't know how to do it in Vista.

I was looking at purchasing that, and have found it priced anywhere from $16.99-39.99. I'm not sure if I have to by it directly from Symantec or if I can purchase it for a cheaper price elsewhere. Also, do you know off-hand how to check how much RAM is available. I learned that once but haven't used that command enough for it to have stuck in my brain.

I have used norton since the days of Norton utilities for DOS, and have had no problems. It is kind of a resource hog at times, but many of them are. If you have a system that has less than 1 GB of RAM, you will notice significant sluggishness when Norton is doing a scan, so you just schedule the scan for the middle of the night, or some time when you are not using the machine.
