Multiple Monitors - Norton Problem

Hi Everybody,
I have (or had) a win ME system with three PCI VGA cards and monitors. After
installing norton internet security 2005 I immediately started getting
errors that the system memory was running very low and that norton
auto-protect would not be able to function properly, and then got vxd errors
when pressing any key, and then the system would crash. After farting around
with it for several hours I managed to get it up and running, but only after
removing one of the PCI cards. I also tried installing a dual output AGP
card and made appropriate changes to the BIOS but then the system crashed
immediately. I've also had multiple TAPISRV errors since installion and the
system also doesn't shut down or restart on the first command and usually
takes two or three times. Does anybody have any tips on how to fix this
problem without having to remove norton? Or is norton just crap and I should
try something else? Thanks!

Norton Sys works is junk and causes more problems than it fixes.
