    I have Norton Personal Firewall installed, and have just installed K++.

    Usually, when I run a program for the first time, it comes up with a "do you want to permit this program" dialogue, but when i ran Kazaa, it didn't.

    So now the program is blocking kazaa from connecting. (I have disabled the firewall and it connected instantly, so this isn't the problem)

    I have been into Personal Firewall>Configure and tried to manually configure it to permit K++; I added "c:\program files\kazza\kpp.exe" and did "permit all" but it still isn't working.

    does anyone who uses Norton know what Im doing wrong?

    BTW: Norton 2003, Kazaa 2.1.0 build 3

    instead of permitting all, try configuring
    it&#39;s access manually. Follow the instructions in the kazaa lite FAQ

    thanks for the reply.

    I tried what you suggested. I configured it to:

    permit all on all ports inbound
    permit all on all ports outbound
    block on all ports to 217.116.227.249

    as the FAQ suggested, but to no avail. I am definitely doing all this for the correct file? I don&#39;t need to do it for any of the others?

    i think you need to select kazaalite.kpp instead of kpp.exe. as it will be kazaalite.kpp accesing the internet not kpp.exe
