My first thoughts are to suggest you disable the Norton System Doctor.
I learned years ago that crash protectors did more harm than good.
They are all resource intensive. I actually used to crash more with
the protectors than without them. They are just not worth the
resources you give up to use them.
Let me also suggest this, Debbie. Go to Help.com and enter the
following string into the search box at the top of the page:
"GDI resources are low"
http://www.help.com/
Then scroll down to the section "Newsgroup Subjects" and you will see
about three links to questions asked similar to your own. Click those
links and at the bottom of each question, are "Replies" links. Read
some of the answers others got to your same question. I think some of
the answers there will guide you or at least give you some good answers
to consider.
