I'm not sure why that happens or if there is a fix for it. I have no real experience with Norton's Firewall, been using Sygate and Kerio for the past few years without problems. I stopped using the free version of Zone Alarm a few years ago when I had the same problems you're seeing.

I used NIS and my sibscription ran out (THANK GOD)
and I switched to SYGATE PERSONAL FIREWALL
http://smb.sygate.com/support/documents/spf/default.htm

It passed every test Norton did and the time won't run out on you

Well as for the leaktest program if you use Sygate and get a warning like in the picture I guess it really does work:D
