Make sure you have a backup of your wallet!
just find your wallet.dat file. i think you can import it to blockchain.info
without having to download the entire blockchain.

From my side I reccomend Electrum - very light and super fast. For me much better than Bitcoin-QT.
I also changed from Bitcoin-QT to Multibit. Very satisfied so far... (+-3 weeks of usage)

You may download some of the lightweight wallets like multibit that they sync with the network in seconds.
thx.. Just updated... Latest version not such a resource hog

Normal. It has to download the blockchain.
I would recommend however closing it down and installing the latest version of Bitcoin QT (assuming thats the program you're using).
I wouldn't run one that is 2 years old.

Hi
I have left a bitcoin on my computer for well over 2 years with out opening the wallet. I now have open the wallet program with it on. The wallet has been going for 3 days now but it say it is still loading blocks. Is this normal.
What is the best way to maintain your bitcoin wallet. I don't really want it running all the time as it seems to use a lot of resources..
Thank you..
