To all who come on down the line (if any) who might not want to suffer the perplexity that I have regarding why your internet security program (specifically NIS 2003) won't work with VNC:
Hello Elke, Welcome back to Symantec Online Technical Support. I am extremely sorry for the delay in response and thank you for your patience. In your message you wrote: >The application is already added via manual add in program scan, and given 'permit' status. The IP addresses are already added in the trusted zone. The ports are opened via the security professional feature in Norton. Elke, please allow me to apologize for the difficulties you have recently encountered. This problem is caused by information filtering on port 80 by Norton Internet Security (NIS). To solve this problem, temporarily remove port 80 from the list of ports scanned by the firewall. Removing port 80 will cause ad blocking and privacy controls to function improperly. After you are finished using the Internet-based application, add port 80 back to the list of ports filtered by NIS. To remove port 80: 1. Open NIS. 2. Click Options > Norton Internet Security > Firewall tab. 3. Under the HTTP List, click 80 > Remove > OK. To add port 80: 1. Open NIS. 2. Click Options > Norton Internet Security > Firewall tab. 3. Under the HTTP List, click Add. 4. In the dialog box type 80. 5. Click OK to close all open windows. If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. Regards, Mahesh R.
