Been using SM for years without problems, but this year it seems to run slower

Also been running Zone Alarm free firewall + antivirus for a very long time.
There is
increasing circumstantial evidence that ZA's antivirus checking is slowing the
loading of
SM - and a lot of my other programmes, too - but it is worst with SM. When run,
SM often
takes a minute or more before even the browser frame appears, and Firefox was
not much
better until I recently discovered how to do what FF calls a "refresh",
whereupon load
speed improved considerably compared to SM. Chrome has always loaded fast, but
that's
irrelevant to my problems because I don't like it and rarely use it.
So .....while it seems to slow file running and saving in general, why would ZA
so
particularly affect SM in comparison with my refreshed FF?
Can't be the computer - got 2GB RAM, 3.2MHz CPU, keep the HD well defragged,
etc.
Anyone here using ZA who has a similar problem?
I use ZA firewall but never the anti-virus. Actually I dont use any anti-virus
at all
for at least 10 years now and have never noticed that problem.
Easy enough to check out.
Turn off loading of ZA and see if it makes a difference.
