cannot see the Internet or other computers on your local
network. You can see only what is available through the
VPN server to which you are connected.

See “Create
Emergency Disks”
on page 47.
Before you install Norton Internet Security, prepare your
computer. If your computer cannot start from a CD,
create Emergency Disks.
Prepare your computer
Quit all other Windows programs before you install
Norton Internet Security. Other active programs may
interfere with the installation and reduce your protection.
If you have a recent version of Norton Internet Security
Professional, Norton Internet Security, or Norton
Personal Firewall, the installer can import and use your
antispam training settings. If you have an older version
of these products, the installer prompts you to remove
the older version.
You must also uninstall any antivirus programs that are
installed on your computer. For more information, see
the user documentation that came with the programs.
If you’re using Windows XP
Windows XP includes a firewall that can interfere with
Norton Internet Security protection features. You must
turn off the Windows XP firewall before installing Norton
Internet Security.
To turn off the Windows XP firewall
1 On the Windows XP taskbar, click Start > Control
Panel.
