My work tech support suggested I add LW as a trusted program but it already is - is this the old version thats trusted & somehow do I need to add the new one Please help |
I fixed it - lord alone knows how except I did a probe test on my PC - that seems to have unlocked it - maybe resetting the trusting of LW did it - BUt its fixed |
I have the same problem - how did you do that probe test / resetting trusting? |
Well I dont know because tonight I am firewalled again Am trying to replicate what I did last night to free it & will let you know when I fix it again - which I am assuming I will be able to do |
