Re: Oracle websites
Hi Jonathan, I bought a new PC sometime back similar to you, xp norton firewall and virus and i had a problem with norton to start with. I found the solution was the built in windows firewall was also turned on. You can check this in the start-control panel-network connections-right click on isp connection-advanced tab == you will see the internet connection firewall. In my case it was on, turning it off fixed it and allowed norton to function correctly.

RE: Oracle websites
I'd say IE and firewall too ... I use Mozilla Firebird ... it is set to open different tabs instead of windows ... Maybe you want to tweak XP built in firewall and open ports 80 (http),443 (https).

Re: Oracle websites
Yep, could be the firewall, if the site gives not found error. Another thing that you might hit is that Metalink requires cookies to be enabled, maybe in XP's internet explorer they're disabled by default. Tanel. Firewall seems like the most likely culprit.

Re: Oracle websites
Is this a multiple choice question? My money is on the firewall. You can test this by trying to go to well known web sites like microsoft.com and dell.com. Who is the firewall's vendor? You need to enable the feature that allows full access to sites. Go to grc.com to check the firewall to determine if it is doing it's job properly. If a web site is running Java or Javascript, you might want to check the firewall to determine if it will allow Java access. Also check the Internet Options to determine if Oracle is on a list of bad sites. RWB Reginald W.

Re: Oracle websites
Make sure you also allow destination port 53 UDP/TCP for DNS requests.
