I use Norton 360 usually without any problems, but I don't use any other AV program with it.
While it appears you can run Avast with other AV programs because Avast doesn't have its own firewall, running two AV programs together can cause problems.
When you open Norton (although don't know which version you are using), click on Support and it will run a check on its installation and look for any other problems.
Process Explorer doesn't flag Norton for me and I think I would prefer Norton to Avast.
Symantec have a Remove & Reinstall tool which you can also use if Norton has become buggy.

Once it has fully reinstalled and activated the product, you need to manually check for updates (at least I do) until you get the non needed.
If you are intent on removing Norton then use the NRT to ensure all of it is gone.
