Support Assist Recovery is valid Dell software:

Whether the update you're being offered is really from Dell is hard to say without knowing if you've scanned thoroughly for malware recently, etc.

Norton could be giving you a false positive. You might want to repost this in the Virus & Spyware forum to see if any of the experts over there know why Norton may be misidentifying the update as suspicious.

Be sure to mention the version of Windows and the version of Norton 360 you're using.
