WS.Reputation.1 has destroyed a decade's worth of plugins.

Is there anyway to actually disable WS.Reputation.1?  Disabling it in the AV settings doesn't do anything.  The support chat guy rebooted my computer and then disappeared.  Many of my VST plugins, some of which I have literally been using for a decade, are suddenly getting flagged with WS.Reputation.1.  Restoring them from quarantine and supposedly excluding them from the scan doesn't work.  I am in the middle of a large music project, and Norton is completely screwing me over, suddenly making it impossible to proceed.
