Exclude computers from AutoBlock
If a computer you need to access is repeatedly placed in the AutoBlock list,
you can exclude it from being blocked by AutoBlock.
To exclude specific computers from AutoBlock
1 Open Norton Personal Firewall.
2 In the Security Center, double-click Intrusion Detection.
3 In the Intrusion Detection window, click IP Address.
4 Do one of the following:
2 In the Currently blocked list, select a blocked IP address, then
click Exclude.
2 Click Add, then type the computer’s name, IP address, network
identification, or a range of IP addresses containing the computer
that you want to exclude.
5 When you are done excluding IP addresses, click OK.
Restrict a blocked computer
You can add a blocked computer to your Restricted Zone to permanently
prevent that computer from accessing your computer. Computers added to
the Restricted Zone do not appear on the blocked list because Norton
Personal Firewall automatically rejects any connection attempts by
restricted computers.
To restrict a blocked computer
1 Open Norton Personal Firewall.
2 In the Security Center, double-click Intrusion Detection.
3 In the list of computers that are currently blocked by AutoBlock, select
the computer to add to the Restricted Zone.
4 Click Restrict.
5 When you are done restricting computers, click OK.
