I have Norton Internet Security 2007 which invited me to take a free upgrade

took the upgrade. After a lot of preparatory work and downloading it
started to install but failed (I tried twice). That left me without NIS so
I then had to use the Norton uninstall tool, install NIS2007, and download
and install the various updates. All this took several hours.
I would suggest you think twice before accepting this upgrade.
A number of experts agree that the *retail* AV version of McAfee, Norton
and Trend Micro has become cumbersome and bloated for the average user and
can play havoc with your PC.
There are products on the market with equal or better test results than
Symantec's products, consuming less resources at a lower price (*even free
ones*).
