On VISTA Norton's firewall is not allowing websites to be

turn off Nortons firewall to view any webpages. We are on
a dial up connection. Very fustrating. Anyone have a
clue? Norton said Microsoft Generic Host should be on but
could not find that specific option in Vista. Any clue?

Thanks in advance.

Why are you using Norton antivirus when Comcast gives you
McAfee for free as part of the package and you have to pay
for Norton? Also when I got new computer with Vista, IE
was extremely slow. Not sure why but Firefox is much
better.

because IE sucks.
firefox *is* much better.
