Unblocking AutoBlocked computers
In some cases, benign network activity can appear to
be similar to an attack and AutoBlock blocks the
network activity automatically to ensure that your
computer is safe. The list of computers that AutoBlock
has currently blocked may include the computer that
you should be able to communicate with.
If a computer that you need to access appears on the
list of blocked computers, you can unblock it. You may
want to reset your AutoBlock list if you have changed
your protection settings. To reset the AutoBlock list,
you can unblock all of the computers that are on the
list at one time.
