None of that worked. But just as I was about to leave for the evening I get the bright idea of disabling the firewall on the computer I am trying to share with. Presto, no problem. So one-by-one I've gone back and reinstalled SPF, enabled VIPRE, rechecked the Intrusions options, and re-enabled network security module. The applications still work.
So now I suppose I have to apply your suggestions to the other workstation, until I get this to work. I will let you know how it turns out. – Chirodoc, on January 07, 2009 23:46

No improvement in either of the programs, and none in using Windows Explorer, after trying this procedure. – Chirodoc, on January 07, 2009 15:49

Netbios is already set to Permit for Trusted and Internet, both in and out. – Chirodoc, on January 06, 2009 21:48

I tried each of your suggestions - except for one - without any improvement. The one I didn't try was for Windows File and Printer Sharing, because I couldn't find that one listed.
Can you help me locate that?
Thanks. – Chirodoc, on January 06, 2009 19:07

Thanks for your reply.
I did everything you recommended but it didn't make any difference.
Then I changed all the settings for the database program to PERMIT, and that also made no difference.

Can you recommend something else that I might try?
Thanks.

Networked applications not working since installing SPF

My small office has two networked computers which share a database application and WinMessenger. Neither of these applications has worked on the network since I installed SPF (and Vipre) last month.

Chirodoc started following the problem "SPF blocks legitimate network activity" in Sunbelt Software.
