Norton's products (since they went the way of Symantec) have
proven, many times, to be a huge system resource drain.
Unless there's a gun to your head, I'd suggest using one of
the many other firewalls available.

Use the Windows firewall if you are satisfied that the limited
capabilities (does not block traffic originating from your computer)
are adequate for you.
If not then look into any of the other firewall products available
*except* for Norton. I see far too many problems with computers
running Norton products and my opinion regarding them is that their
"cure" is worse than the disease.
Good luck
