Ok, i finally gave up Norton - i've just started a thirty day trial of Nod32 and i've installed Sygate as my firewall.
Restarted, everything seems fine, no viruses, except everything was ridiculously slow. I chkdsk'd both of my HD's in case that was the reason. So i opened up task manager to see what the process situation was like and lo and behold svchost is taking up 99% of my resources.
If anyone could enlighten me with a possible reason then i'd be grateful because i'm at a loss.
Oh, terminating the process seems to work without any adverse effects and i'm running a full virus scan now.

Come to think about it.. i'm probably in need of a windows reinstall one of these days.
