others. I had the same problem with my new computer.
After installing Norton Internet Security, and cleaning
Blaster and Welchia from my files, I still could not get
on to the Web. What worked is to click on the Norton
Int. Security icon and click on Disable. At the pop up
box click "Yes". This then allows me to connect to the

cannot send email messages. I can receive, but not
send. Note that the anti-virus feature is still engaged
even after disabling the Norton Int. Security. Hope this
helps.
