I am running Norton AntiVirus as well, no problems here. So it should be possible. Which version of Norton are you running? You say you have SP2 installed and also Norton's Firewall. SP2 has a built-in firewall which is ON by default. If this is also the case for you, then you are running two firewalls at the same time... And what about the router? Is it purely a router? I am asking this because many routers for home use have a built-in firewall. If so, it is not necessary to run one on your pc. C> I find this problem very frustrating.

It must be possible to run Norton and The Bat! simultaneously. -- Best regards, Sander van den Berg :nlflag: The Bat! v3.0.1.33 Windows XP Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
