    quickest solution, dump norton and get AVG. But im sure its to late to return norton
    that sounds like a good idea trooper.

    o.k. this is my first tech solution... get ready

    1. Go to Control Panel

    2. Go to Windows Firewall

    3. From here you can turn it off or

    Make BF2 and exception.

    Hope this helps.

    You have to go into Nortons firewall and tell it to allow BF2 to have access. Will work once that is done.

    Haha, Norton.

    With a hardware firewall (Ie. a router), Windows built-in firewall, and a little common sense, you'll be fine.
