I cannot access www.techwatch.co.uk unless I turn off N.I.S. 2007.
This has only recently started happening.
Any ideas where about in the program I can turn off this blocking?
Parental control is not used. I do not want to remove N.I.S.

Cheers,
FatMan

Does NIS still include a feature to block by URLs? Can't remember what
the feature was called but you could have it block sites based on URL
substrings (like many ad-blockers use), on domains, or for specific
hosts. You might want to ask over in their forums:

I found the manual for NIS 2007 at:

ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/products/norton_internet_security/2007/manuals/nisr1ug.pdf

Geez, what a worthless manual. Doesn't NIS 2007 still have an ad-
blocking component as mentioned at http://tinyurl.com/yebvz8t?
