Installation
System requirements
10
Symantec pcAnywhere
You should have no problems using Symantec
pcAnywhere as either a client or host with Norton
Internet Security. For maximum protection, if you run a
Symantec pcAnywhere host, edit the rule to limit its use
to only the computers with which you use it. Symantec
pcAnywhere passwords are also necessary for maximum
security.
Routers
Norton Internet Security adds to the protection provided
by the router. In some cases, you might want to reduce
the protection provided by the router so that you can use
programs like NetMeeting or MSN Messenger. Norton
Internet Security also provides features that might not be
available with cable and DSL routers, such as privacy
protection.
Internet connection sharing programs
For basic protection, install Norton Internet Security on
the gateway computer. For maximum protection against
Trojan horses or other problem programs that initiate
outbound communications, install Norton Internet
Security on all computers that share the connection. You
must have a license for each copy of Norton Internet
Security that you install.
Virtual Private Networks
Norton Internet Security works with the following Virtual
Private Networks (VPNs):
1 Symantec Enterprise VPN
1 Symantec Gateway Security
1 Nortel
1 VPNremote
1 PGP
1 SecureRemote
