I too installed NIS and found that after an accidental [all to quick reflex,
click] response to one of it's messages: all internet access was blocked!
Also The performance of the PC was so terribly affected with all the NIS
processes running in the background.

I uninstalled and then used System Restore.

Norton is not getting onto my PC again.

I suggest you try System Restore, get a clean XP [free of Norton] and use
Windows Firewall or Zone Alarm = Peace of Mind and Usable PC.
