Yes; it will slow down your computer while they are running. Norton isnt that recommended.

Read my guide for some more information:

Should cause you no problems conflict wise, make sure u update them to keep on top of things, outdated antivirus/spyware is almost pointless no matter how many you have ;)

would whack on ZoneAlarm (http://www.zonealarm.com/store/content/catalog/products/sku_list_za.jsp?dc=56pus&ctry=GB&lang=en) if your have no other firewall too
