4 Do one or more of the following:
2 On the Personal Firewall menu, select a level. Your options are:
2 On the Java Applet Security or ActiveX Control Security menu,
select a level. Your options are:
High Blocks all communication that you do not specifically
allow. You must create firewall rules for every program
that requests Internet access.
Medium Blocks many ports that are used by harmful programs.
However, it can also block useful programs when they use
the same ports.
None Disables Norton Personal Firewall and allows all Internet
communications.
High Blocks your browser from running any Java applets or
ActiveX controls over the Internet. This is the safest, but
most inconvenient, option. Some Web sites might not
operate properly using this setting.
Medium Prompts you when Java applets and ActiveX controls are
encountered. This lets you temporarily or permanently
allow or block each Java applet or ActiveX control that you
encounter. It can be bothersome to respond every time that
you encounter a Java applet or ActiveX control, but it lets
you decide which ones to run.
None Lets Java applets and ActiveX controls run whenever you
encounter them.
