Norton Internet Security - Why need to press Fix Now

Hello,

I have all my settings enabled for automatic updates, scans, etc.

Yet, at least once a few months, Norton's icon shows up with a. "You Are At Risk" alert asking me to press a button.

Really?

Norton will stay in this .mode until i press a button?

And what exactly is this mode?  Is it a lower security mode?

Please help me understand why Norton is not managing this automatically as I expect it should.

Why does it have to drag me through this minor drama.
