Can you check this? I've been updating manually and since I don't use all the pieces it can be real hit and miss getting all the dependancies right.

You can just always grab everything from the /DrumsUI_Custom/ folder every time. The easiest way to pick what is actually loaded or not, would be via the DrumsUI_custom_includes.xml file. Otherwise, those files never get loaded
From the web:

WS.Reputation.1 is a detection for files that have a low reputation score based on analyzing data from Symantec’s community of users and therefore are likely to be security risks. Detections of this type are based on Symantec’s reputation-based security technology. Because this detection is based on a reputation score, it does not represent a specific class of threat like adware or spyware, but instead applies to all threat categories

I don't personally use Norton (and never will) so I can't say why it's flagging anything, or what file (maybe just because it's Java). It's known as what's called a "false positive". Zero of the files related to the Updater/Java have been altered in months. Only the UI files uploaded change, and they are all plain text files.
I'd "Allow" or white flag the Updater if possible.
