Default Excel Taking Long TIme to Start

When I try to start up Excel, it takes a VERY long time to open (like 3-4
minutes)
Much of the time, there is a message in the lower left, saying 'requesting
virus scan'
(I use Norton for my anti-virus). If I disable NAV, that does shorten the
time for Excel to open, but it stil takes 1-2 minutes. I have a similar
problem with Word, but it is not as bad. This problem developed gradually and
is getting worse. I do not have this problem with non-MS applications.
Any idea what to do anbout this?

TIA
Sanford
