I use NIS 05 therefore Norton Firewall is on in my system running winXP SP2. one day when I tried to update my MS AntiSpyware Beta1, Norton Firewall asked me what to do? Mistakenly I blocked that program to access internet. So Norton firewall isn’t allowing MS AntiSpyware to access its update server. Now how can I make Norton Firewall to allow MS AntiSpyware to access internet?

(Though there is no new update for MS Antispyware but still I would like to know the procedure)

I dont remember exactly but check under settings or for something like program control.
Uncheck or delete the program you want to give internet access to from the blocked list.This is a vague answer cause I'm not that acquinted with NIS.

If I'm not wrong then ports 5000 & 5001 are the two ports used for yahoo voice chat.Open the TCP ports 5000,5001 in your firewall settings.
