Norton Internet Security PLUS Windows XP Security?

[Darrell S]

I have Norton NIS 2005 using Firewall, Anti-virus, Spam protection. I had
turned Windows Security Settings off due to using Norton. I just added the
Windows Security on top of Norton. Will that cause a problem?

What specifically in windows did you enable? Windows XP natively has a
a firewall, but no other built in security programs. You should not run
two firewalls at the same time.

Dont run two firewalls or two anti-virus 24/7.

Sounds right. I've deactivated Windows XP's Firewall.
