Norton Security Suite's Vulnerability Protection causes my IE browser to run slowly. According to the IE pop up that keeps telling me to manage my add-ons for better speed and performance, NVP slows down my browser by 26 seconds. I have Windows 8.1 but have not had any of the compatibility issues that others seem to have had. My question is this: Can I disable NVP without putting my computer too much at risk? Twenty-six seconds is way too much and I am not going to use NVP if I can speed it up or supplement it with another program. I hope all you smart minds out there can give me a clue, here. Thannk you!
