I have never had any problems using Summary with Norton AntiVirus, but 
Norton Personal Firewall, and most other personal firewall products, will 
prevent access to Summary unless you configure it to allow Summary access 
to remote port 9000 on outgoing connections. Norton AntiVirus and Norton 
Personal Firewall are often purchased together, for example both come 
with Norton Internet Security.

as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
