Is anyone aware of a issue with Norton that will basically disable acces over POP3 and SMTP connections?

I work for a web hosting company and I have ran in to this issue where Norton bascially prevent them from connecting to the email servers. The "fix" is running a Live Update on Norton. Has anyone ran across this problem before? Why is Nortong being facist like Mcafee(who will disable the internet if your subscription expires!)?

For the Record I hate Norton, never liked it, I really think it invents problems and viruses to make it look like it is working.(Norton also sleeps on the job. AVG would run a scan find a virus and then Norton pops up that it found something little to late there.)

Easy fix - uninstall Norton and use AVG. :)
