Norton Crashing in Win 8

Did an UPGRADE from Win 7 to Win 8 and Norton Shell kept crashing.

 

Used Norton Removal Tool, rebooted.

 

Reinstalled Norton after downloading latest version (which I previously had) and rebooted.

 

Same errors.

 

Using Windows Defender now.

 

Is there a fix for this or is Symantec taking the same route as EA did with Origin and thus have chosen not to support Windows 8 at this point in time?
