I think I've managed to block Firefox from accessing the net with NAV, how do I undo this? Sorry if this is something very simple, I just can't seem to find a list of blocked programs to delete it from.

Thanks in advance

To my knowledge NAV cannot block Firefox from accessing the internet. Do you have Norton Internet Security? If you do, open it up click on:

Firewall/configure/programs/

Look for Firefox and on the right hand side it should say "Permit All", if it doesn't change it to that by clicking on whatever it says and a menu will open and you can change it. Make sure you click OK, after you change it.

If you do not have Norton check whatever firewall you have.

Thank you - of course it IS NIS - that will teach me to lose my temper and post in the early hours - will keep this book marked and make alterations after Groovicus has led me by the hand through killing these vile things in my computer.

Thanks again.
