Turn off the firewall for Symantec's no good security system, and all will be well. Leave Vista's firewall on or turn it on instead. I spent hours with Symantec about this and they do not have a fix, at this time.
Hi Vista's Firewall is very good two way firewall. if you have special needs you can look at the Advanced part of it too. http://www.support4vista.com/tutorial/windows-firewall.htm http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=DF192E1B-A92A-4075-9F69-C12B7C54B52B&displaylang=en There is no reason to use other firewall instead of the Vista's Native one. If you decide to use Vista's firewall, clean the system from any other Firewall, Disabling is Not really getting it out of the system. Jack (MVP-Networking).
