Do not renew Norton. It is some of the most overpriced crap in computers.
Go to www.grisoft.com for AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition. if you are worried about viruses.
Here is a direct download link.

Uninstall Norton. Download AVG at www.grisoft.com. There's a free personal version.
Not updating your antivirus is just the same as not having any. Norton is bloatware now and AVG does a good job, and the price is right. If you would like to pay for it it is 38 dollars or so for 2 years of updates.

If it expired, meaning the amount of time you bought it for (usually a year) has passed, yes, you need to renew it. You are not being covered/protected.
While you have the protection, you are encouraged to periodically update it for the latest virus protections.
