    Hello, I have tried to do this by disabling auto-protect and firewall in the Norton app. This has no effect.

    The Norton tools service cannot be "stopped" , nor can I change the startup state to manual or disabled.

    My Norton is 360 Delux. My version is 360 deluxe 24.11.9615 (build 24.11.9615.883).

    Are you able to advise about this or should I talk to Norton for a while ?

    I am happy to carry on if you can.

    Thx again

    RF
