Title: norton firewall is driving me nuts!!
Post by: purple_wick on October 11, 2005, 02:20:39 PM
i have a dell d5100
i have norton internet security installed.
the thing is,im having trouble with nortons firewall
i have the rule for microsoft printer spooler service set on automatic...(norton did that itself).
thing is....when i open up games,photoshops etc..i get this pop up in the bottom right corner saying*rules automatically created for the program:mircosoft printer spooler service...and it just keeps popping up for like 5 minutes,even it i click ok.
ive looked in my trusted programs list and its there set on auto and it still pops up...ive even set the rule to permit all...but the pop up still keeps popping up
its driving me nuts...im thinking of just turning nortons firewall off and setting up windows xp firewall,but i know this isnt as good,beacuse it dosnt stop outbound connections.
any help please..... ???
