One of the problems with Norton is that it's a bitch to get rid of
everything it leaves on your system when you uninstall it. Symantec
made available a removal tool to get rid of all the little bits and
pieces after you do a conventional uninstall. But...you need to (1),
know that bits and pieces are left after a normal uninstall, (2), know
that a removal tool exists, and (3), find the tool so you can use it.

What security software do folks suggest?
Not so much a suggestion as my experience ...
I used Norton up until I retired from the military in 2007 and no
longer had access to the DoD servers for updated virus definitions.
Had it set to automatically do its thing at 3:00am, and never noticed
it hogging resources. Nor do I remember any particular problems it
caused me.
Since then I've been using the free version of AVG. It's been
relatively transparent. I have had a couple of automatic updates that
required me to restart the computer, but nothing like the aggravation
Micro$oft and Adobe have caused me.
No virus found in this incoming message.
