I don't have Norton's firewall. just the AV...but it has a ton of settings I
never saw before...and have NO idea what they refer to..somewhere there are
blocked situations that I don't understand..I could unblock but at this
point without any other protection I wouldn't.
I agree with the advice tho.. if I HAD firewall there would be choices I
would make like she did. I didn't pay enough for this program for it to be
over all security. It has such included but doesn't install because that
isn't what I bought.. I just wish I could get rid of it..it's not user
friendly...I never had problem before downloading anything like firewall or
other AV...it's a hassle having it this way. But since I have nothing ELSE
at this point it's what I have to use...grumble
Thanks so much for your patience..
