So, earlie today, Norton gave me some-sort of message, I of course wasn't in the office at the moment it happened, so I didn't see what it was (from the door, i can't identify the screen), or at least, I believe it was a norton message (Akin to when your using so much system resource with a program, or something, a window typically pops up in my lower right, saying "Norton has detected ______ is using XYZ ; i'm sure you've all had some sort of message like this at some point). I'm not 100% entierly sure it was norton, as I had been carrying some heavy boxes at the time when I entered the office, but i'm posting my experience here, because I have faith in the norton community, and not the product alone. Later on, I was playing a game online, and changed windows to get some information on one of the areas of the game, but when I tried to access my browser, It couldn't connect to -any- websites. Thinking nothing of it, I rebooted my computer, now my game couldn't connect to the internet, nor could my messenger service OR my browsers, I was essentially isolated from the internet.. I tried to diagnose my internet connetion, and it turns out my IPv6 connectivity, is disabled (if it was ever on to begin with, I couldn't tell you; though in my network connection information it says clearly "no network access"). After running a norton scan (thinking it was a trojan, or some sort of hijack kit, trying to redirect me through a proxy - my first suspicion being, thinking back to when things stopped working, and recalling i believe I may have missed a norton message), I eventually opened my command prompt and typed ipconfig/flushdns, after which, i've been able to connect, to type this message now (though my ipv6 is still reading "no network access", another IPV thing, says "internet" however, this did not change during my initial issue, I still wasn't able to connect, until flushing dns from the command prompt.
NOW of course, my messenger, broswer, and -everything under the sun- works just fine, but i'm not sure what caused the complication to begin with, thus I am a skeptic, and looking to the Norton Community, for any insight that could be provided..
Thank you
