Norton sudden increase in scans

Over the last two months Norton seems to have suddenly become, for want of a better term "over active ". I am used to the caption box appearing saying "full scan in progress " but this was previously on an intermittent basis.

Now, it's every time I boot up my machine and there's been a significant increase in the red "has fixed " etc captions, which tend to be low risk phishing cookies.

I am curious as to why Norton have suddenly, it seems, started this activity.

All suggestions welcome, bearing in mind I am not an IT "techie " , please
