To get the new SSC IM working with Norton Personal Firewall 2006:
The problem is in the Popup Window Blocking of Ad Blocking. It interprets the SSC IM as a popup and blocks it. To maintain current performance while allowing the SSC IM to function do the following:
First copy this: im5webapp.stopsmokingcenter.net
Open the Personal Firewall window.
Click on Ad Blocking, then click on the Configure button.
Click the Advanced Button.
Click on Add Site
Remove the default �www.� (if it�s there) and paste the URL. Click OK.
Click on the Global Settings tab and uncheck �Use default settings� in the �Information about your browser� box. �Permit� should be selected.
Click OK all the way out.
SSC IM should launch now.
This is what I did and it seems to work fine. If anything is wrong or excessive, please post it. I also don't know if the steps will apply to any other version of Norton Personal Firewall. I made no changes to IE 6; everything is at default for it. I do have the XP firewall disabled since Norton does a better job.
Keep up the great quits, everyone.
