How long is a FULL system scan supposed to take with Norton 2007 Antivirus?

I'm running windows XP BT Yahoo broadband are my internet suppliers..I've been having problems with my pages freezing and PC running slow for the past week the only things that have been downloded onto my PC are AVG spyware,windows defender and as of today Norton antivirus 2007 under the advice of Yahoo protection help desk...After downloading norton it had a big red cross saying at risk and fix now so i clicked on the fix now and it said to do a full system scan and live update the full system scan took just over 2 hrs and only picked up one low risk problem which I fixed..however the live update has been going for over 6hrs and it just says initialising connecting to live update..Am I doing something wrong for it to take this long

Mine takes about 30 minutes to an hour.

It depends on how many files are on your hardrive, if it has alot it will take longer.

turn off norton and it should go faster
Try and uninstall the program, then, (this is risky) go into xp security and turn off your firewall, download the software again...open and install, turn back on your firewall then restart your computer....you may have to do this with defender as well, I figured that out the hard way..don't forget to turn your firewall back on after you install the programs...
The scan depends on the number of files you have
