Internet security or speed, That is the question

Every security program gums up the works. I want to be safe, but can I not loose the enjoyment of having pages or programs just open and not have to wait??????

Would like to know some programs that would be less intrusive to the speed of the programs and processes.

Is that too much to ask for??

no it's not and adding security is not a "Internet security or speed" question at all.

it is possible to muck it up with bloat ware but that is not necessary at all.
