Thanks. I know he needed a software firewall, and that
was the main reason for me being there...
He had a BIG problem with "his own upgrade" of NIS
(Norton Internet Security2006).
It was totally screwed up, (even for a Norton product - <grin>)
I managed to get it all working though...

Most newer modems, cable or dsl, have a built in firewall which is
enabled by default but can be reconfigured if need be. This won't
prevent a trojan on the inside from using it (a common problem), but
it will prevent hackers from getting in.
