Hello,

I have installed Norton Anti-virus 2005 on my PC in July 2005, since that time I have noticed that my firewall BlackIce PC protection is not recording any more "attacks" (TCP or UDP or HTTP scans). I am worried that installing NAV 2005 may have disturbed my security settings and that my firewall is not working properly. How can I assess if the firewall is working properly?

I have read the docs provided with Norton Antivirus and it seems that they have now developed an Internet worm protection. Could it be that this is what is blocking some attacks before the firewall does?

thanks for your answers

Lionel
