Amidst the brimstone fireballs
Eyes of the dead
Watching from their living walls
Broken glass reflections
Show your flesh eaten away
Beyond the gates I'll take you
Where the blood forever rains"

To prove a point, I uninstalled KaZaA Lite and my firewall then reinstalled the firewall only, it was fine until I ran the updates and rebooted now I am back to square one where the firewall is automatically disabled upon switching on or rebooting, so it appears its something to do with the "Updates"  any ideas now?  :-\

I cant understand these comments about Norton Anti Virus not working when you use Kazaa or Kazaa Lite.


The problem is not with either Norton or the Kazaa software itself. Delgado, it is the way some human-like animals manipulate it.  

Kazaa could best be described as "the womb of all viruses".  Low lifes (those with nothing better to do than create human misery) use Kazaa to get their creations onto our computers.  It is these creations that cause the problems, Kazaa is merely the favoured means of delivery.


 With respect Dave- I know what it is that causes the problems . We all know it is the crap bundled with Kazaa. You stated that using Kazaa and Kazaa Lite left your Anti Virus and Firewall of no use. I   simply meant that I have used both Kazaa and Kazaa Lite together with different Anti Virus and Firewalls and they have always either stopped or picked up viruses with no problem. I would never advocate using Kazaa ,(I use Kazaa Lite). I have even downloaded files that I know contained viruses for test purposes through Kazaa Lite, and Norton has picked it up and cleared it every time.


if you cant do something nice-do nothing!
