Re: Problem with Windows XP, Norton Internet Security 2007 or Word

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

EGA,

Open NIS, go to the FIREWALL. Click on the PROGRAMS tab & give WINWORD.EXE
'Permit Always' access. Maybe its set to 'Automatic' or 'Custom'. If it's not in
the list, click ADD & go to Program Files... find the application & add with
'Permit Always' access

Another thing you can do as you have a Home Product is ask Symantec Live Help

http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/support/productdetail/contact_ts.jsp?pvid=nis_2007

As for the others who state you should bin it are free to express their own
opinion but this advice seems to be escalating due to the pyramid reading of the
users; One person says it & a few more read it. They pass on what they read to
others & more read it... Before you know it 1 million people have said the same
thing starting from one person who obviously has no idea to start with

Very helpfull I must say!

Good advice. Norton is famous for screwing up computers. The problem,
however, is that it's hard to remove. Go to Semantec's web site and
download the uninstall tool. Then, download and install Avast! for your
anti virus, www.avast.com and Comodo for your firewall, www.comodo.com/
Both are free.

You'll be thankful you did, trust me.
