antivirus

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'perhaps norton' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'against six primarily routing everyone' is the wordplay.
'against' becomes 'anti' (prefix meaning against).
'six' becomes 'VI' (Roman numerals).
'primarily' says to take the initial letters.
'everyone' becomes 'us' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
The initial letter of 'routing' is 'r'.
'anti'+'vi'+'r'+'us'='ANTIVIRUS'

'is' is the link.
