Norton 2005 Firewall Comments
Jul 9, 2005
Thanks to those who responded to my question on July 7th on Norton Anti-Virus 2005 acking as a firewall. There seems to be a variety of opinons on that but Norton has since then assured me that their 2005 program does indeed act as a firewall as well as an Anti-Virus software and unlike Windows XP's firewall it monitors the behavior of outgoing network traffic. The program did ask me if I wanted the "worm" feature and I agreed and it did turn off the windows firewall to avoid conflict. I asked about installing ZoneAlarm as well and was told there was no need to do that and it might also conflict with Norton

How well does NAV 2005 and ZoneAlarm Firewall 5.5 work together? are there any compatibility issue that i have to be aware when using this two together? and is it competely safe to mix it up? Which configuration would take system resource or drag computer performance? (NAV 2005 and ZoneAlarm Firewall 5.5) or (Norton Internet Security 2005).

But when I open control panel, security center, it says there is a firewall on. I don't beleive I have a firewall with Norton Systemworks

Having just updated to the Antispam version of NIS my System Restore now refuses to operate properly. I can open it (sometimes) but as soon as I try to do anything with it it hangs. Most other programs are not affected except as I close IE now, I get an error message "The instruction at "1x127cfb80" referenced memory at"0x0215ad58". The memory could not be "read". Click on OK to terminate the program." This may or may not be related.I tried removing NIS 2005 and System Restore came back to normal but having reinstalled - the problem now re-occurs. Symantec website is useless and I cannot find any telephone numbers.Has anyone else had a similar problem?

I know several people have experienced Norton Firewall disabling their ability to deliver mail in Outlook and Outlook Express. I found an article at the Norton Site
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPO [...] vy=&csm=no And it has solved the problem. I turned off the Privacy control and turned back on the Firewall and all is well. Hope it works for others as well

I recently had a problem with NPF 2005 that resulted in my uninstalling the program using the it's uninstall program. When I tried to reinstall the program, I discovered that the installer would not run. I have tried various methods to start the installer from the NPF 2005 install CD but nothing worked. The Symantic knowledge base suggested copying the CD to the hard drive and installing from the hard drive. This did not work either. I thought that perhaps the setup program has been corrupted so I tried the CD in a computer running Windows ME. The installer came to life and was ready to proceed with the installation. I did not attempt to complete the Installation, I only wanted to determine if the setup program had been corrupted. Does anyone have any idea why XP might not allow the program to run

My PC (Holly) bought in 2003 runs Windows XP(SP2). Also Norton Antivirus renewed annually/Norton Personal Firewall (2002), Mozilla Firefox.Up to now, have had no problems with the viruscan or the firewall, but I had to renew annual subscription to Antivirus and unable to download new Subscription from Symantec website (got error report with no explanation after putting in card details) so went and bought a disk of it (2007 version) from PC World. Was prompted to remove Symantec Personal Firewall when I started installation
I did remove it, with reluctance, thinking it might be difficult to reinstall the firewall and it is I have the original Symantec firewall disk, 2002 version, which came with PC. Anyway, I successfully installed the Viruscan 2007, then put in the disk for the Firewall to reinstall it.installation of firewall got message box with a red cross: NORTON INTEGRATOR: FAILED TO REGISTER FILE TYPES No other explanation,I did not know what else to do, I clicked it, it went way, and the installation proceeded. After all the installation tasks completed, I was asked to restart PC. My computer froze at that point. Would not close. Eventually I switched it off at mains, then restarted it in the usual way. The Norton Personal Firewall icon shows up and when I open it, it is not Enabled, neither can I get it to change to being enabled by clicking the button

I do not speak Microsoft so if I use any terms which are not quite correct please make allowances. I purchased a new laptop on Friday which includes Norton Firewall. The
machine came preconfigured with Windows XP (Version 5.2 with service Pack 2) nstalled. I set the machine up to access my home network which includes other machines in an MSHOME work group and to route through the firewall router to the Internet. All this worked as I expected

I recently upgraded to the Norton Anti-Virus 2005 edition. I have always trusted this Anti-Virus program but it turned off the windows XP firewall and they tell me that I don't need it with their 2005 version because worms, hackers, viruses etc. are stopped through their program. Anyone know anything about this ? Obviously I want to be well protected

My Norton firewall is about to expire and I wanted to know if there was a more 'gamer' friendly firewall out there. Norton has caused me an endless stream of problems with my games since I got the damn thing and I would love to know if someone has better experience with a better firewall/antivirus.

I am using eTRust EZ firewall and just recently started having problems with it and the effect on my pc. First, it wouldn't let me select allow or ask under the access internet or trusted column under the program control. Now, it won't let me access the internet if the program control is turned to low, medium, or high. The only way for anything to get to the internet is if the setting is turned off

I read something on the Windows website that says Media Center Edition 2005 has a power option called Away Mode. The settings it has are perfect for me, but it is not in my powercfg utility. Is there an extension I can download for the program to get Away Mode? Please note I'm not talking about one of the Power Schemes. I'm talking about a whole seperate power mode available that turns off the monitor, mutes the sound and slows down the graphics and CPU.

I have DirecTV and want to watch TV on my computer. I am looking for TV Tuners and they all say that it is "125-channel cable ready tuner". Does that make a difference if I can watch satellite TV through it or not? I haven't found one that says anything different.

I have had this problem before on XP Pro and never got it solved, but it is quite the nuisance. Whenever i login to XP, the login screen disappears and the computer goes to the point where it looks like its about to load the desktop, but it doesnt. it just sits there. after about a minute, it will load. the funny thing is, if it gets to this point and i hit any key on the keyboard it continues to boot all the way through without the delay.

I'm getting a really nice $2000 Dell Dimension 8400 on December 8th, and it comes with Windows Media Center 2005. Anyways, I was wondering if it had the same features of XP Pro, but with the extra media features.

So I just reformatted last night and installed Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. Since installing it, I haven't been able to restart or shut down. The computer gets stuck on the background (no icons and taskbar). I don't even get to the blue screen that says it's saving settings and shutting down. Is there something I'm missing? I'm going to try starting up the computer with nothing selected in the msconfig and see if that fixes it. I'm 99% sure the problem occurred even before I installed drivers and such, but I'm running a Dell Inspiron E1505 with ATI Mobility X1400.

Basically I have run out of PCI slots now - I am not putting anything in PCI slot 1 as the heatsink of the X1600PRO arriving soon will overhang it making it a very tight squeeze. So my only options is a USB 2 DVB Tuner to simply receive DVB and HD Signals with AC-3 Sound. Meanwhilst I can use the Hauppage PVR-150 MCE which has the PVR plugged into its S-Video port to archive recordings from my cable PVR box into a movie file to edit out commericals later on and put onto DVD and free up the PVR so it can continue its series link!
I understand that MCE 2005 supports two TV Tuners so that 1 channel can be recorded from one tuner while another is watched from the other. However does MCE 2005 support two different brand TV Tuners (i.e. the Hauppage MCE PVR150 and a Leadtek USB 2 DVB Dongle) or do the two tuners have to be identical brand, model, etc. The Leadtek USB 2.0 is described as being compatible with MCE 2005.

it will shut off and restart itself. He claims that this has been happening close to when he received it. We had no real proof of it restarting until last night when he was actually using it and it restarted before his eyes. He is running Windows XP MCE 2005.
