Ami I the only person who woke up this morning to find that the Symantec
firewall updates I installed yesterday have changed the setting on my
firewall in such a way that I am completely cut off from the internet?

Probably. Most everyone else has uninstalled Symantec.

My NIS 2007 updated yesterday (with program updates and restart) and appears ok. Running Win XP Media Center (superset of XP Pro?) SP1 with IE 6. Net access ok as well as secure net access. Same for my wife's Win XP Home SP1 with IE 6. In both systems, however, I have to restart every several days to keep live update working. Complains about missing file for administrative rights after about a week. Restart fixes it. Been that way for all the Norton stuff for a long time.
