My Cold Turkey app doesn't work with Norton Internet Security
ColdTurkey should be blocking certain websites temporarily, but after installing NIS, it doesn't anymore. Though earlier today, it was working for a bit... Not anymore though.
Here's Cold Turkey http://getcoldturkey.com/
Did you just install NIS?
What security software did you have before you installed NIS? How did you remove it?
Hello visitor
What kind of programs did this program block? There exists the possibility that both programs are trying to block the same thing and therefore there would be a conflict. If there is no conflict, please check the firewall and make sure that the program's .exe is listed in the firewall.
I did just get NIS and before it I had microsoft security essentials and my Windows firewall did not work.
It blocks individual websites, not programs. Like if I want to take time off of facebook, I can add facebook to the list and it will block facebook from my computer for up to a week. It has to do something with host files but I don't really know what those are.
And I just added the program to the firewall exception list, I'll see where that gets me.
How did you uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials? Did you uninstall it before installing NIS?
Check that you have removed MSE, then restart your computer. Then download and run the Norton Removal and Reinstall Tool from here. Be sure to run LiveUpdate manually a few times, rebooting as necessary, until no updates are available.
