I have Zone Alarm and the program control is in the configuration of Zone
Alarm. I don't know how the Norton Firewall works, unfortunately, but it has
to be something similar. In Zone Alarm, you can have a setting that tells
you when something (i.e., WriteLog Packet Terminal) is trying to access the
Internet and you can then accept it or reject it. Norton has to have
something similar...perhaps those with Norton can enlighten us.

When I switched from Sprint Broadband Direct (MMDS - 2.4 GHz RF) which used
a cable modem to DSL I could no longer access my AR-Cluster node using the
internet IP address. I had to use the internal LAN IP address of the PC

the cluster. But this is only relevant if you actually have the node at
your
location, which I don't think is the situation.
WL does pass the spots to the spots window for me though I don't have an
OBJECTS section. I just looked at K9JY's web site and don't find anything
on
the OBJECTS section at all. I just noticed that he wrote you too.
I'm stumped
I have determined that it's my Norton Internet Security firewall that is
preventing WL Packet Terminal from accessing the Internet. I can turn off
the
firewall, and WL PT accesses the Internet just fine. With it on, however,
access is blocked. HyperTerminal gets thru the firewall just fine,
interestingly enough.
I spent some time last evening trying to figure out how to make the
firewall
not block WL PT, but to no avail. It ain't obvious, but I will persist,
hi.
