Well XP has it's own firewall. For Norton, does that include the firewall or only the AV program? If you have the Norton firewall; see *Configuring Norton Internet Security & disable XP's firewall: go to the control panel, double click on Windoze Firewall, check the disable box.

If you don't have Norton firewall, then you'll need to configure XP's firewall: Firewall configuration instructions (click on link)

BTW beware of small files below 1 MB in size. See WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of! & don't get confused between KB & MB.
