Hi,
I'm not positive but I think that the security for the Norton files has been tightened to prevent corruption. The Auto-Protect feature does it's very best to be sure that nothing makes changes to the Norton core files - but Norton. The amount of fragmentation that might be present should not be a problem.
If your system becomes so slow that you feel that something must be done then use the Norton Remove and Reinstall Tool to place a clean copy of the program on your system. After rebooting, be sure to run live update until the program tells you that all updates have been downloaded and installed.
