i really like norton but i havent figured out a way to backup firewall rules. default rules are very very nice but special rules and blocking popup script from specific websites have to be redone when i reinstall the os
the coolest thing about it is that default setup is very safe and it'll block everything... including program loopbacks
it's the easiest way to figure out what progs are accessing the net. sniff out normal progs like wmp when it sends things out without u even knowing about it.

Hi...
Sorry because this is probably not the right place to post this question but anyway:

I've done this before but since I reinstalled my WindowsXP Pro and Norton Firewall 2002, the Firewall won't let me to access my IISs from any computer outside my network...
As far as I remember (from the previous system) when I try to accesss my FTP or WEB server I am asked for the first time if I shuld allowed or block this kind of connection... But now the connection is just refused and I was never asked to allow or block it.
I can't just go and allow ports such as 21 and 80 because they will be open for any application... So how do I manually allow the access to my IIS?

And the second problem is that access to my Remote Desktop is refused too... I don't even know what port is used for this connection... and it is probably changing... So how do I allow Remote Desktop service in Norton Firewall?

remote desktop is port 3389 if I remember correctly
Agreed on ZoneAlarm...
'cept that i've hacked into zonealarm systems
their main problem is that they put critical security settings in the registry
ive never been able to hack a norton system.
