[Guest]

Norton keeps telling me that several programs are atempting to access the
internet. How do I delete them?

How do you know that they're not supposed to be accessing the internet?

it is probably the internet firewall that comes bundled with the norton
systemworks suite. there are some essential processes that need to
access internet resources such as 'Client server runtime process' and
'Generic process for win32 .... etc.. if u want better control over the
programs and wud like to control the way they access the net a good
third party firewall like ZoneAlarm is recommended. U can control it
manually or i u don't want the headache of configuring each program for
net access then u can set the security advisor (something like that) in
automatic mode so that it does all the configuring for u based on
predefined rules.
Hope this was helpful. do let me know.
