Err, norton is one pain in the ass.
Its not allowing it to connect through the firewall.
Maybe un-install norton firewall, and install a 3rd party firewall (E.g. Windows, which is what i use).
Also double check your windows firewall is not on.
(Check settings-internet-security , or sumfin like it).
If the pop-up keeps apperaring, you myt have to allow several "components" to allow to work as well.

Windows isn't third party. It's the only non third party one there is because it's part of Windows. Also, I feel you know nothing as your suggestion isn't even close to the problem or solution.
GIBBS - you need to find the section in the Settings that allows you to manually set each program, find MSN and select "Permit All" and it stops doing it. Mine did it too until I did that.
