Uninstalled a bunch of them, updated MS Security Essentials, ran all the Windows Updates and such, and it left about 5x faster. (Though with some more memory it'd be 50x faster)

First time I've seen no virus and too many AVs.

Rob,
Yep, I see the same thing quite often. Sometimes, the A/V are worse than the virii!
