Welcome to this board,

Yes, Avast and Norton do not work together. If you do a search on this board you will find threads explaining on how to remove Norton completely.

And your typing is just fine

The uninstall utillity from Symantec (Norton) helped me in the past.
It works for Norton version 2003 and back.

Just a suggestion, take some time to get familiar with Avast's settings and what they do. The help can explain a lot and so can this board.

No, avast! does not even work with Norton antivirus installed.
Probably you do not get the 'a' icon in the system tray and if you get, the 'a' icon must have a red cross in it. It means: avast! is not working.
You must uninstall Norton Antivirus 2002 by Control Panel and after that, use a specific tool of Symantec to remove traces of NAV from Windows Registry.

You don't have to uninstall Norton Utilities... I use them and avast! does not 'detect' or 'conflict' with them
