Yes, as Norton says -
"This is the Norton Utilities program that protects your Recycle Bin by
adding an extra layer of safety to the deletion of information from your PC.
Recommendation : Leave untouched. If you want to remove it, do so via the
Norton Utilities' control screen."
(More Norton bloatware)
