Remote computers and Norton FW 2005

May 16, 2005 0 Replies

I was "forced" to upgrade from Norton FW 2003 to 2005 since they no long support 2003. I guess it was for the best :P



I have a question about attempted connections from remote puters. In



2003 FW they were auto-blocked. However, in 2005 you have to manually decide what to do with each one. I always block even though Norton's recommendation is to "always allow." Aren't most attempted connections from remote puters malicious? I tried connecting to a few of the DNS addresses, most were refused and one was from an obscure website.

Thanks, SG
