Adding a program to Program Control
You can add a program to Program Control to control
their ability to access the Internet. When you add the
program, you can configure its access settings in
Program Control. You can allow, block, or create the
custom rules that are specific to the program that you
add.
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.
