Reposting this reply from another thread:

Norton should have fixed this by now. 

We've had continuous issues with various a-v "heuristics".  We actually had a similar issue with Norton maybe six months ago and thought we were in the clear, but we've triggered their alert again with the latest update last Saturday.

We've been in continuous dialogue with Norton the past 24 hours and they claim the issue is resolved.  It may take time for their update to propagate as users continue to report problems. 

It seems like they're either quarantining or even deleting the "epic.exe" file.  Interesting that some chrome version is apparently also triggering this?!
