Conflicts between BlackICe and Nod32

I recently purchased a BlackIce version 3.6 cny, I am using windows xp sp2 home with Nod32 v 1.966, and once I try to install the blackice, everything seems to work fine, but after the installation, my system crushed. I dont' know the reason, so I restart my computer, and blackice's AP and the engine is all turned off, and when I try to turn it on, my system crushed again. and I tried it several times, but every time the system crushes . Anyone has a solution/suggestion toward this problem?

Sorry if too messy,

Thanks,

Pilot

 

Did you disable the Windows XP firewall? If not, I highly recommend you do so.

 

No, I have not, but is that the cause of the confliction?

 

common wisdom holds that two firewalls running at the same time often (very often) leads to all sorts of system problems. Disable Windows Firewall and see if that fixes your problem....

 

Thanks guys, it now works!

 

No problem, the Windows XP firewall causes a lot of issues with other security programs. You can't even use VNC with it enabled.
