Hi there,

I'm using Look 'n' Stop for the first time, I'm a couple of day's into the trail period, and am finding it a lot better than any other firewall i've tried in the quest to have the ideal firewall for my pc usage.
During sortin out how to allow me to play BF2 I was getting some of the rule setting windows and coped with them pretty well until at some point I clicked the "Block" button for something that I thought I'd already set the rule for and inadvertently forgot to tick the "just for this session" box.
Now I get Symantec windows pop up for both of my email clients saying unable to scan incoming/outgoing emails.
So I must have set a rule or something but I can't figure out how to reconfigure it.

Your help will be much appreciated on this prob as I've spent nearly a day scouring the net and help file for clues how to fix it to no avail.:wacko:
Thanks

Would you believe it.I new this would happen as soon as I post a help me message I find out what I've done and sortied it.
And I can't believe how simple it was...Doh!
I had changed a DLL rule/setting blocking the norton email scanning facility.:-[

{QUOTE-> I feel so daft with that one...::) <-QUOTE}It happens to everyone at some point in time, never let it hold you back from asking a question though.
