Norton Internet Security Firewall Setting for Extender

Hi,
I've just installed Norton Internet Security 2008 version on my Windows XP
MCE 2005 computer, which is networked to my xBox 360 as an extender.

The extender is now unable to detect the PC after installation of norton.
I've checked that there are all firewall ports for media center extender from
the Windows Firewall are appropriately checked.

I suspect that the norton internet security firewall had taken over the
windows firewall and did not include the exclusion setting.

Can anyone advice on how to make the media center firewall exclusion setting
changed in norton internet security 2008?

Regards.

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/911728 probably has the
info you need.

why anyone would willing inflict pain on themselves with Norton is
another issue..
