If you have Norton running and up to date, then you probably have nothing to worry about. The virus currently making (another) Facebook and MySpace appearrance is an old one that Norton can detect and clean.

Plus it is not actually a "virus" because it does not spread by itself. You have to install it. To get it, you have to click on an e-mail, follow a link in the e-mail to a web site that pretends to be an update to the Flash program, and then download and install the update. If you have not done that, you are not infected.
