We have recently installed Norton Internet Security on our PC running Windows XP,
once installed and set up we found that we could not access the internet from our
NTL Broadband Modem. We tried to change some of the settings and check that the network
card is not being "restricted" by the firewall and it wasnt. We then tried the internet
again, but still no success. We have now removed the software and the internet is
back to normal, does anybody know what the problem is? Is there something that we
have to enable/disable?
Thanx
Keith

Open Norton and click on internet security. Go to personal firewall settings and
make sure the slider is all the way to the bottom. Next click on internet access
control and find all your applications that use the connection and make sure the
ones you use are set to permit all. Lastly go to internet zone control and be sure
if you have a fixed address for your broadband it is listed in the trusted sites.
Hope this helps.vote if
