I just loaded Mcafee's Personal Firewall 2006.
But now when the pop-up box asking if you want to allow/disallow that site to be accessed on the computer.
The box freezes.
It wont move, delete, or allow anything to be clicked after a choice is made.
One can still change web pages, but, the pop up window will block any view.
Since this happens when one tries to choose how the Firewall should treat the incoming/outgoing application/action is something interfering with the firewall.
Or visa versa?
Sounds like just another bug in yet another software firewall. There is no end to the things that can and do happen with these things. I have tried literally dozens of them, and I would be hard pressed to name just one that is problem free. So if you can't work around the problem or avoid it, I'd remove McAfee and try something else.
Sincere condolences.
Nice.
Just remove this crap. You don't need it.
Yours, VB.
OK I got it Macfee / firewalls in general are crap.
But I have one more question.
This same computer has Norton Anti-Virus 2000 with Auto Live update.
Could this some how "interfear" with the firewall?
