Looks like you may have found your first issues with NIS; these symptoms can
occur as a result of an AV application setup to scan email that gets a tummy
ache. Try removing NIS, running their debris removal tool to remove all the
crud the uninstaller leaves behind, then use the "Custom" install feature to
re-install it without any email scanning modules/services and see if the
problem persists. Email scanning is redundant, it does nothing but create
problems where none exist, and your system is fully protected without it,
provided you keep the resident file system scanner up to date.

Download and run the Norton Removal Tool
Alternatively, you can try upgrading Windows Mail to Windows Live Mail, it
is less prone to suffering bad effects from overly aggressive antivirus
programs.
