Hey guy's,

I've configured OE to download my emails from Hotmail, but the only way I
can download them is by disabling Norton Internet Security.

Can anyone tell me a way I can download my emails without disabling my
Firewall.

Cheers.

LJ

I don't own Norton Internet Security software but anyway firewall
generaly will try to block things going and coming from the Internet.

You need to give permission to the firewall to allow OE to download
stuff from the Internet/ISP.
