| im puzzled here as well. for starters.. nortons firewall is a firewall program. firewalls monitor ports... and what connects to those ports. it does NOT scan what goes through the ports. and there is no such thing as a port called "credit card" another thing is, your browser does NOT have your credit card info! infact unless you have an account program like quicken on your comp which you have your credit card number recorded in, it should not even be on your computer. (Secured pages like order forms are often not cached onto the hard drive). looking at this scenario.. I find it to be, honestly, impossible. I very much doubt nortons firewall has a warning saying someone is trying to get your credit card number... |
