SL slows down to a crawl and then...

Things start out okay, but not long after I log in my hard drive starts churning uncontrollably and SL grinds to a halt and I get "Second Life (Not Responding)" for several seconds, then back to working for a few, then not responding again. This repeats over and over until I quit and restart.

One odd thing I have noticed is that when I run the task manager after quitting SL, Second Life is still running and I have to End Process, even though SL was no longer in my task bar.

Dell XPS420
Vista Home Premium 32 bit
Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0Ghz
4GB Ram
Nvidia 8800GTX 768MB RAM
Internet Explorer is the only other program running in the foreground.
Norton Internet Security running in the background
7mbs down cable modem connection 512kps up

Thanks!
