Hi all,
I have a problem that happens when i install a new program usually, which is that norton will freeze my pc. I see the bottom taskbar, and i see that a new window for norton has popped up, but i am unable to view it.
The desktop gets frozen, and i can only click on the taskbar. but when i click on the norton taskbar for the new window.... the window itself doesn't actually appear.
THis has happened to me with alot of other firewalls.... but there is always some combination of short cut keys i can hit to get out of it. I've tried selecting the norton window and then hitting enter, or hitting the left arrow key and then hitting enter. or even moving the mouse to where i think the window is and clicking around to allow or deny.
I can see the task manager when i hit ctrl alt del.... which is my only option.... but the problem is i can't end taks the particular application norton is blocking... it won't let me... the onlyl thing i can then do is end task norton itself... to bring the desktop back. And then i have to restart the computer... because norton won't start back up again.
this happens frequently with newly installed programs. is there no shortcut key combinations i can try next time this happens? or should i just put it on automatic firewall settings when i install new programs(hopefully it doesn't deny anything i want to allow)
any input is greatly appreciated thatnk you for your time.
Sincerely.
