Norton 360

[lordergf]

In automatic mode firewall of Norton 360 allow inside connection without any reaction.With this function in Windows some friends of mine showed me how is easy to control my PC without my knowledge! In any network they just know my IP to take control. I seen this with my own eyes and made my self some tests and Norton is vulnerable.And i disable remote desktop and put password on my accounts. Make something like Kaspersky( see the picture)

Please do something about this!Put rule in firewall  to ask user before allow this connection.

Regards,

lordergf.

When i used Remote Desktop Connection Norton 360 do not asked me to allow this connection . Norton just create a automatic rule to allow connection from other computer and this is dangerous because everybody may take control over my PC!
.

Remote Desktop just log off  you and you lose control. I want even in automatic mode of firewall, Norton keeps me informed if someone try to connect me.

If you do not a password in your account you lose the game.

Hi lordergf,

I'm not precisely sure that I understand the question.  If you do not want remote assistance, you should disable it.  If it is enabled, Norton would not block it as it would be something that you have permitted.  Am I missing something?

Hi.

I have permitted only by myself. Because i wanna control my other computer like thousands people out there. So where is the protection of Norton? In Internet no one is fully anonymous and there lot of ways to learn my ip. And then who stop you to hack my pc? I'll make a video for you!

 Here is the video:  http://youtu.be/F1GHZYErTlc    Everyone  in my network  can tipe in cmd  "netstat-n" or  "net view"  and my ip is visible for them.In this video is my own PC and there is nothing illegal.The point of security products is to protect you еven you a ordinary user in every situation. Or am i wrong?

Even if someone on your network has your IP address they still need your password to access your computer.

If you do not have your accounts set up with strong passwords, you should not have remote desktop enabled.

I support lordergf, because consumers should receive optimal protection by default. There are people who do not even know how to put password on the accounts will .. they spend money for your products ... think about them!

Norton does provide optimal protection by default - if sharing is not enabled, the Network Trust Level is "Protected."   If the user enables sharing, it is assumed that that is what the user intends to do.  The user can also specify, in the Norton Network Security Map, which particular devices should be allowed or blocked, if that is what the user wishes.  Norton provides protection, but is also must facilitate whatever connections the user instructs the PC to allow.  Otherwise, Norton would be blocking everything and users would be tearing their hair out trying to get their networks to work (which is already difficult enough without a firewall behaving like HAL).
