Default Too many Norton Services in startup

Norton consumes a lot of memory...everyone knows this...In avast ...if u goto : run>msconfig>services(hide all microsoft services) then there are just 4 services

while in norton if we follow the same process there are 11 services...

Are all of these important ?? Can I not disable a few so as to save some memory ??

norton is a GOOD BRAND, but a POOR PRODUCT !
i would rate mcafee, bitdefender, kav, avg, avst, nod32, pc-cilin as being the better ones.

i dont think u may be able to disable any of the norton services. norton is very possesive ! it may just stop working !

now heres the best part ! try uninstalling it completely successfully !
