Norton Personal Firewall 2006

Norton Personal Firewall 2006 is a component of several

Symantec security products that include Norton Internet Security,

Norton Personal Firewall, Norton AntiVirus, Symantec Client

Security, and others.
While you are installing Command Center, Norton Internet

Security will automatically recognize Command Center

attempting to access the network. It will prompt you with this

Security Alert.
Leave the setting as “Always allow connections from this program on all ports.”
Click OK.
Norton Internet Security will also recognize that Command Center

is attempting to access the Internet. It will prompt you with this

Program Alert.
Leave the setting as “Allow always” and click OK.


Validate the Setup

We expect these settings will configure Command Center completely for Norton 2006. However, we

recommend that you follow these steps to ensure the settings are accurate:
1)

Open “Norton Internet Security” from the system tray

(shown) or from the Start…All Programs menu.

2)

On the Norton Internet Security management screen,

click Personal Firewall.

3)

Click the Configure button under the Personal Firewall

section.

4)

From the Personal Firewall page, click Programs tab.

5)

In the Manual Program Control section, scroll down

until you find Command Center.

6)

Here you need to set the Internet Access to “Permit

All.”

7)

Click OK.

NOTE: IF YOU DO NOT FIND COMMAND CENTER IN THE PROGRAM LIST (RARE), YOU WILL NEED TO

CLICK THE ADD BUTTON.
ON THE PROGRAM DIALOG, ENTER THE FILE NAME “C:\PROGRAM FILES\WILIFE\COMMAND

CENTER.EXE” AND CLICK OPEN.
NOW REPEAT THE PREVIOUS STEP.
