Re: MS Project app Freeze when opening a .mpp file - Thanks JulieS

Hi John,

For my benefit and that of others, what was the process to "allow" Project
to move through the NAV firewall?

Yesterday I posted this issue on this discussion and, I believe,
JulieS responded with the idea that it may be a conflict with Norton
AntiVirus. The specific problem was that attempting to open any .mpp
file would cause both MS Project 2003 or 2007 to freeze.

Turns out that is was NAV. After a lengthy session with NAV online
chat last evening it was determined that it was necessary to "allow"
Project to move through the firewall. All Office apps were so
configured and everything is functioning normally now. That change
took place sometime during the past month, I assume from a update to
NAV.

Thanks JulieS! for the tip.
