how long does this software last that came on your computer?
Lets get to the important things here!! You didn't even tell us you were
getting a new computer!
What did you get???
Congratulations!
It's possible that something else is blocking it, or that if all updates
weren't on it when you got it, something nasty snuck in.

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..
