1. After making certain you have a copy of your Product Key, uninstall all
Norton software via Add/Remove Programs.
2. Enable the Windows Firewall.
3. Run this removal tool:

4. Reboot and /immediately/ install the 30-day free trial version of, e.g.,
NOD32* or KAV7**
5. Manually update your new anti-virus application then run a full system
scan.
Do your problems persist now?
[Don't forget to subscribe to your new AV app or uninstall it then reinstall
the Norton application before the free-trial period expires! Should you
decide to reinstall the Norton application, I recommend not installing any
Norton Add-ons for a while.]
