You can disable Norton based on the type of Operating System and user permission you have.
I will brifely introduce to you the windows (client)/administrator version.
You go to start menu and click on run and type: services.msc
Then hit the enter key. A window will open up listing all your PC services.
Look for any services that are called Norton or Symantec. Typically they are all related to Norton Antivirus (example: Symantec Live Update etc). Right click on each one and choose to DISABLE them instead of having them set to MANUAL or AUTOMATIC. To disable them you need to click on Properties after you have right clicked on each service and choose from the drop down DISABLE.
Next step is to ensure no Norton processes will be running in the background when PC boots up. So go to run again and this time type: msconfig. A window will open up with bunch of tabs. Make sure you click on the ADVANCED tab and then look for any names that are related to Symantec or Norton. Uncheck them all. Click on apply then on ok. choose to restart your computer. When you are back in your windows session a pop up will appear. Place a checkmark on it (bottom left corner) so it will not show up again. This is a pop up that is basically letting you know that you have modfied entries under msconfig.
When deciding to turn Norton back on, apply the same steps from services.msc and msconfig and reboot your PC...once again.
