NIS 2010 taking longer to load now

I also have noticed that recently my computer boots up slower than it did about 2 weeks ago. Sometimes the windows sidebar gadget showing the green Norton secure bar takes about 4 minutes to show up, sometimes it takes less than a minute. The norton yellow and green icon in the taskbar pops up on the screen fast but in this time lag I also noticed that when i click on the NIS 2010 icon in the taskbar, it doesn't bring up the NIS screen until the couple minutes are up. I also try to click on the IE icon and it also doesn't come up until it seems Norton is done loading. 

I am running NIS 2010 17.8.0.5 with AOP 4.8.0.3 on a Windows vista home premium gateway laptop.

The computer shows no other signs of issues.

Scans are ok.

I ran "get support" and it came up no problems.

I also have NIS 2010 set as early load.

also in my norton history performance graph it also shows no activity until about 4 minutes into the startup.

 

I don't know if it the same issue as the BHO loading issue some people are having.I don't know if anything is wrong with the computer but there is definitely a longer load up time than a couple weeks ago.

Thanks Kevin
