NORTONS FIREWALL

[Guest]

RUNNING XP HOME SP2 - NORTONS INTERNET SECURITY 2005.It runs great but when
im playing a game or "doing anything else for that matter" the nortons
firewall advisory window displays "RULES AUTOMATICLY CREATED FOR THE
MICROSOFT GENERIC HOST PROCESS FOR WIN32 SERVICES" every 5 minutes or so. Ive
never had this problem before. I know im virus free and spyware free and its
just a " known program" However, i dont understand why its popping up every
5 minutes. Any suggestions? RAY

Open Options for Worm Protection>Select Program control

rule for Generic Host Process.

Delete the rule.

When the next notification comes up, after you say permit, it will be
stored properly.
