Product manual

Lets the firewall notify
you when a program
attempts to access the
Internet. You can then
allow or block Internet
access for the program.
In some instances, such
as when you watch a
movie, you might prefer
not to be alerted with any
messages. In such cases,
you can turn on
Automatic Program
Control. Norton 360 does
not prompt you with any
firewall alerts in this
state.
The firewall notifies you
only if you have changed
the General Settings
options of Smart Firewall
from their default,
recommended settings.
Respond to alerts
Adding a program to Firewall settings
You can add programs to Firewall settings to control
their ability to access the Internet. Manually configured
Firewall settings for programs override any settings
that Automatic Program Control makes. However,
Symantec recommends you to retain the settings that
Automatic Program Control makes as and when you
run your programs.
w
Firewall settings for programs are not migrated from
previous versions of Norton 360. If you want to restore
any programs that you manually added in the previous
version, you must add them again in the current
version.
