Very slow running pc

My Pc is running VERY slow. Often it takes 10 -15 seconds for the screen to react when I click on a drop down or try to close a window. The hard drive is making a weird sound like it is trying to write for 1/2 second every 2 or 3 seconds. I don't know if the is the spyware, normal or the drive is dying, it is 5 years old. I tried to follow the instructions and run the scans in order from the self help thread.
I have run Spybot (nothing but cookies), adaware (found cookes only), AVG Spyware (Said it fould 12 items but only showed 7 cookies in the left column). , AVG antivirus (nothing) and AFT cleaner.

I have had help here before with great success. One of the things I did was dump Symantic "EVERYTHING" months ago and that helped all my pc's. However, I notice in the hijack log the dreaded word "Symantic" again and NVSTARTUP (is this Norton virus?) and am wondering what that is doing lurking on my PC. I have not deleted anything per your instructions.

Thanks for any help
