I will confirm Scott's support for AVG. I have a number of clients that use the paid version and I also have a large number of friends that use free_AVG. It is one of the better ones. and has (except for the whole computer scan) a very light footprint on the computer. I do recommend the paid version if your livelihood is on the system because ot the strength but that's just my recommendation, not a must do.

I'll third this.
Have used Avast for a while, and it has worked quite well on my systems.
Another suite of AV to stay away from, btw, is F-Secure. It was good
once upon a time, but has grown seriously bloated.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

 Remove Norton Antivirus.  Install one of the free alternatives like: AVG
(http://www.grisoft.com), Avast (http://www.avast.com), Avira
(http://www.free-av.de/en/index.html), or Clam AV
(http://www.clamav.net).

 Take the time out to ritually abuse and destroy the installation media and
manuals that the idiots at Symantec sent you. :-)
I'll second Doug's suggestion. I've been using AVG for a couple years
on the Windows boxen around here and it seems fine.
<http://free.avg.com/>  Disable the "link scanner" once it's
installed, please.
