Try, while viewing the Inbox, View menu>current view>show all messages.

Well, there's your problem, "norton 360".
Norton Antivirus is among the top three troublemakers for Windows Mail.
Symptoms often don't surface until several months have gone by, or until
an update occurs.
First, be sure to disable its email scanning, for the reason explained here:

In a worst case scenario, you may have to uninstall Norton, followed by
using their debris removal tool:

Instead of uninstalling your antivirus, another option is to upgrade to
Windows Live Mail, which is more resistant to the adverse effects of overly
intrusive antivirus products: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview
