Windows/Norton-conflict?

Hello. I have disabled Nortons Firewall "Permanently" and activated Windows
own but after every boot its reversed. Why?

If I´m stuck with nortons firewall then I need another problem solved:

How do I allow my computer to access my other network-devices? My attached
network-devices and printer is not being allowed through the Norton firewall.
Where do I change that? It works fine with windows firewall.

....No, luckily you're not :-)

To uninstall it using Norton's own uninstall tool:
http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...05033108162039
As suggested on the site, you may wish to print out the directions before
proceeding.
Or

If the Norton removal tool doesn't work satisfactory use this:
Revo Uninstaller Freeware - Remove unwanted programs and traces easily
http://www.revouninstaller.com/
and/or
RegSeeker
http://www.hoverdesk.net/freeware.htm
RegSeeker will remove all associated detritus (registry keys,files and
folders) from any application. I found this application user friendly and
very effective but suggest *not* to use the 'Clean the Registry' option.
Click onto 'Find in registry' and in the 'Search for' box type *Norton*;
The pertinent registry keys can then be safely deleted (just in case,
ensure that the 'Backup before deletion' is checked). Repeat the task by
typing in the Search for' box *Symantec*. You can then go on search and
remove associated files as well.
Then use NTREGOPT to compact the registry; Follow instructions.
