Vista - Norton Firewall 2007 block IE7 on Vista?

I am not sure if this is the right group for my problem. Please move this
post to the right group if necessary.
I am using Norton Internet Security 2007 on Vista Home Premium. After my
system reboots due to installation of today's Windows Update, IE 7 can no
longer access the web. I notice the web page titles are shown (in less a
second) but quickly vanish and IE7 display error pages. However, Windows Live
Messenger is OK. When I turn down the Norton Firewall (I always use Norton
firewall and disable Windows Firewall), IE 7 works again. I also notice that
with Norton firewall enabled, the web pages are rendered OK in Windows Live
Messenger, but not IE7.

Leonard,

What doesn't work? No connectivity to the Internet, or maybe no DNS service?

Have you tried querying the Symantec support forum?
