29 bucks wasted or not?

Turn off the browser addons it comes with and see if that helps. And no, NORTON is very solid and worth the money if you have a decent computer, internet, and don't bloat your computer with unnecessary crap.
 
Norton Security is very good software, for many people you can install and forget about it and it'll take care of your PC.

As to your issue with browsing, have you tried to repair Norton, what did you have installed before, what browser extensions, or any other security software installed?

In some cases left over files from previous software can cause many issues.

If you haven't already I recommend posting your Security Configuration Wizard, include details about your OS, Security, and Browser Extensions.
 
Norton Standard slows surfing..I Have Win10 with quad core 2.2ghz....Did I waste 29 dollars?

Also... you may want to consider upgrading your processor. That's very low-end at the moment and wouldn't surprise me if that contributes to your general lack of system performance, particularly in Windows 10 and how it uses a bit more resources.

I find Norton underated. Everyone thinks its just the laughingstock of AVs. Never used it but based on MT opinions I would say its not a waste.

Norton isn't underrated, it's just inconsistent. When it's good, it's really good. When it's bad, it's really bad. There is rarely a middle ground with them.

Before Norton, what AV have you got ?
I suppose, reading your post, you didn't have this surfing problem before.

Not a bad investment, you should keep in mind that an AV will generally affects the performance of Windows because of resources to gather.

Always make a cleaning to your system first and conduct a trial test of an AV to ensure any observation.

Norton Security is a straightforward because all of its protection goes mostly on cloud.
