This morning I started getting a Norton intrusion attack warning when
attempting to open the SSA website. Norton stated it was a "High Risk"
problem associated with a script called from W32.9966.org.

The SSA website's source code does indeed have a W32.9966.org script call.
A Google search came up with the following:

A copy of the problematic code has been sent the SSA.org webmaster.
