Norton Antivirus? I don't see much need for it providing you take some common-sense precautions, mostly not downloading things from places you aren't certain are trustworthy, not entering in your administrator password to requests to install something when it's not an application you are deliberately and knowingly installing, and not opening attachments to unexpected emails. But having Norton Antivirus installed probably won't hurt much, though it can be a bit of a drain on performance of your system and may cause complications for installing programs. Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to install Norton Utilities.
Antivirus software looks at the data—web pages, files, software, applications—traveling over the network to your devices. It searches for known threats and red-flags behavior to block or remove malware as quickly as possible. Malware (short for malicious software) is a program specifically. The most most obvious change in Norton Internet Security 5 and Norton AntiVirus 12 for Mac is new look and feel, which echoes the design and feel from Norton Internet Security product for Windows. The new iconography and related functionality makes for a much easier user experience.

I doubt it would even install on Snow Leopard, but don't risk it. Norton Utilities would damage your OS, guaranteed. Gentlemen, the blanket condemnation of Norton Antivirus falls under what I'd consider to be 'urban legend'. People have over time conflated the problems with Norton Utilities, which were very real, to unfairly tar Norton Antivirus with the same brush. I ran, and supported, Norton Antivirus on a number of Macs and never had a problem, though again I consider it unnecessary. If you can point to concrete information that shows that Norton Antivirus is indeed chronically problematical (beyond just the normal sort of interference any antivirus can cause), I would welcome seeing it and will publicly state that I'm wrong and that your advice to avoid NAV is well taken.
But again, that's not been my experience. We've had far more problems with Sophos or McAfee.
I've never run it except in the old Performa days (I think it was Norton) and then the system was crashing so frequently anyway, you never could tell what was responsible. I've always accepted what I've heard about Norton being a destroyer of Macs, but somewhere in the back of my mind I always wondered how it could be possible Symantec wouldn't respond by cleaning up its act, at least with the newer releases, since it was getting such a bad rep. I have heard the enterprise version of Symantic - not sure what it's called - is problem free. I would assume you wont' get a straight answer here, or a straight answer directly from the horse's mouth, but you might want to at least check the Symantec Community. You can (should) make a backup (bootable clone) of your system if you want to test new software. Then use it just on the clone, or put the backup off line while you try it out.
Reviews tend to be overly positive (don't want to anger the vendor, your relationship) was done with a Preview copy, or on a well maintained system, not yours, while most feedback is from disgruntled people, meaning the person on Amazon etc that had trouble with the install and perhaps other problems. Security suites can be annoying if nothing else, telling you they are doing XYZ (update, scanning, locking PSWD MGR). All have made strides to be lighter on system resources and not interfere with other operations (downloads, system, other foreground and background tasks). Sophos, Kaspersky, BitDefender, Intego also have Mac products and offer 30-day fully functional demo. And there is ClamXav. IT departments can of course mandate the use of AV/Security Suites, even if they are a 'Mac shop' and thankfully proactive and ready to limit a problem should it arise (rather than wait for disaster and then deal with it).
