Hi Greenking.

Bloody firewalls, they're a menace.  I'm sure someone who is familiar with Norton will be able to advise.  Otherwise you could always try Sygate, and if I'm recommending a firewall it must be worth considering as I hate the bloody things.  Sygate is the only one I will tolerate.

If you do decide to change, PM me first.    

Nar, ZoneAlarms what you want GK, never a moments bother with it mate, and it sets it's self up. All you do is, first time the window appears, asking if you want to allow FTP client to connect, say yes and tick the "remember answer" box, and you'll never be bothered again.  

Dave love you New Labour thingy  

The easiest way is to right click the Norton Firewall icon by your clock and Open (or just double click it).  Click Personal Firewall > Configure, then select the Program Control tab.  Find your ftp client in the list of programs, and remove it.  Next time you launch your ftp client, Norton will ask for permission to allow it, in which case you obviously say Yes, and tick the box to tell it to always use that answer.

There are ways to configure individual ports, but you shouldn't really need to go there if the above method works.

I'd just like to agree with tony on that one    

 I can't see it happening again tony
