YOu can't just go deleting stuff as its integrated into windows system files so it can't find dependancies and Windows itself falls over. What sort of OS lets user programs get so tightly in the core OS files eh?

Less, do the uninstall from add/remove progs, install your shiny free stuff, then have a quick look for stuff Norton has left behind and firstly rename the folder, if it screws up you just need to boot with a Linux live cD and rename it back to get your system back. if its fine after a couple of weeks consider deleting at that point.
