If it's expired, and you're not planning on renewing, I would recommend removing it. It can be a bit of a hog, and it has been known to conflict with other anti-vorus programs.
To remove it, btw, run Add-Remove, remove it there, then hit the Symantec site and DL the Norton Removal tool to clean up the remnants it leaves behind. They can still conflict with other programs (SpySweeper comes to mind)

Remove both and get Avast if you want a free one and Kasperksy if you can pay.RK-Mara
