navaspscv.exe is a phone home cookie for norton anti-virus, located in the general index.dat file group folder. any history eraser program will delete it. This 'file' can allow anyone with some 'script' knowhow to easily give you a remote trojan.

Diese Datei gehört zu Norton Antivirus, ist also ungefährlich. Erzeugt alle 60 Sekunden eine CPU-Spitze von 100%. Dadurch ruckeln insbesondere 3D-Spiele. Steffen

This is Norton antivirus autoprotect from what I've learned. But it does about 180,00 I/O reads every time I start my computer and makes it unusable for about 2 minutes before it's done doing whatever it is doing. I would appreciate anyone's input on how to reduce the delay it produces at startup.
slows things down considerably jw
That it eats up processor space Kai

Norton Antivirus,if you are having problems with it being a resource hog then you must have an ancient PC. Any modern PC shouldnt have any problems. I run it on every thing from a 9III 1000 to a Athlon 2600XP and no problems at all. Ardz
eats at CPU - UGH wizkid
norton antivirus and navapsvc.exe in particular simply wont go away. I'm not sure, but I think this is in some mysterious way to blame for a whole lot of problems i've encountered recently, such as not being able to access secure sites.
Windows Reads from this file with 1.5Gb among off data in an 8 hour period. It takes a lot of space in my Pagefile. Grepen

Norton Antivirus autoprotect. if youre surfing the web, or opening a new exe. for the first time, its a very good idea to have this running. to reduce processor usage, do a full system scan of your computer. if that doesnt work, i cant help you Phil

It stops the computer from shutting down. Linda
If you want to be protected you keep it, if you don't wan't it's up to you... dinges
Slows down my system considerably, making it unusable for roughly 5 minutes after starting. Max
It seems to eat up CPU, but never release it. Shutting down and rebooting resets it, but, in a week or so, I'll have to shut down and reboot again to move it from using 150meg back to 20 meg. slave
