XP Firewall was OFF totally.
Well, that’s what the IE diagnostic reported…
Firewall was the XP firewall… NO outgoing scrutiny.
NOPE… It WAS Avast’s Web Shield, as I stated. Every time I turn Web Shield on, I can’t go anywhere… When I turned it off, I can surf normally. I’ve done it multiple times to verify this. In BOTH Firefox and IE.
This unit had Norton, but I removed it. Web access was fine until I installed Avast. Never seen this issue before, and I’ve been using Avast since version 4.
