How to switch on Windows firewall
Hi,
Due to a dongle that I was trying, it instructed me to switch off my Windows firewall and deactivate my Norton antivirus. After doing so, I was able to view the contents of the dongle. However, when I tried to re-activate my Windows firewall, I was not able to. The smart fire wall in Northern antivirus is on though. I suspect, the dongle comes with a Trojan. Is it due to the Northern firewall that is on that is the reason I am not able to switch on the Windows firewall? Please help. |

The Norton AV will disable the Windows Firewall. If you were to remove Norton (like I always do...hate that software!!), you could then enable the Windows Firewall.
