Default Norton Security and Super User

So I decided I would just go ahead and try out the Morton Security app. So I was playing around and decided to scan for some viruses or malware and lo and behold it said Super User Permissions was probably infecting my phone. Should I be worried? Just invade you're wondering I am running the latest Senseless ROM
Droid Eris: Verizon Wireless
ROM: Ic3Rom 1.0
Version: 2.1 rooted
I've been an Android user since 12/25/09

Norton is a virus. I would never believe anything it says. And most likely it is reporting super user is because it opens up rights and allows things that you arent supposed to have, IE root.

Is it Morton or Norton? Because Norton is a trusted name in security, but Morton sounds awfully suspicious.

Think OP meant Norton, just mis-spelled as his thread topic says Norton.
