The current release of 8.2 is 8.2.12 - you are missing 12 separate sets
of bug-fixes! You might want to read the release notes for 8.2.12 back
to 8.2.5

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/release-8-2-12.html

Normally you could just install the latest 8.2, but there are some notes
you'll want to read first.

OK - I recommend four steps:

0. Check your backups
1. Disable Norton (temporarily)
2. Upgrade to 8.2.12 (reading the release notes for what you have to do
since you are bypassing versions 8.2.11 and 8.2.7 etc)
3. Test by clustering/reindexing the problem table/index idientified in
your error message.

If it looks fine with NOD32 turned off, turn it back on and test again.
Once you know it's your antivirus then you'll need to read its manual
and find out how to stop it from interfering with PostgreSQL.
