Something is preventing norton firewall from running,how can i fix it?
Hi !
I installed a Linksys Router and the firefox browser two days ago in my windowsxp,i just installed a new version of norton antivirus that comes with a firewall but the firewall cant run,it seems that there is something preventing this norton firewall from running,is it posible that Firefox or the linksys router have anything to do with it? o if there is some other firewall already installed(or runnig) how can i know? and how can i disable it?
There is a Windows update today that supposedly corrects the problem of certain firewalls not running. I'm not sure if this is your problem, but you might want to go to the update site and check it out.
see,i didnt even know that there was a XP firewall,i dont know if there is one or if its running,this is probably whats causing the problem.Please tell me how to find out weather i have a xp firewall and how to disable it.
You can find the windows xp firewall by going to the control panel and clicking on Network & Internet Connections. Then click on Change Windows Firewall Settings. Once the window pops up, just click Off and ok and the windows firewall will turn it off.
