i installed norton personal firewall, but i get this message afterwards: symantec- settings alert
some symantec product settings have been changed by an unauthorized program. this can indicate that an attacker or a virus is attempting to disable your protection.
to avoid problems, settings will be reverted to the previous configuration and your system will be restarted. click ok to continue.
now after i click ok...it says that settings coudnt be reverted...and i cant manually change any settings for the firewall...it also wont allow me to get online...is my computer hosed...what can i do?

Hopefully you have your latest antivirus updates....first thing I would try is boot to safe mode and run full system scan. If you do have a virus it shouldn't start up in safe mode. Also make sure your antivirus is set to scan all files.

Good luck
