I don't think you can copy a book; as opposed to an MP3 file; directly to
the card, since it wouldn't be indexed. Also, I don't recall Norton
AntiVirus ever asking me anything after I'd installed a new app, but Norton
Firewall very definitely does require you to "register" newly installed
software that attempts to connect to the network. I wonder if the original
questioner really does have Norton Firewall installed and just doesn't know
it.

how about directly copying the book onto the card? maybe APH could
consider developing a version of the BPT for linux? at least I don't have
to worry about AV and firewall not working properly with my application...
