Firewall Question

On startup, my Norton software is saying:

"The computer openrg.home is attempting to access netbiosd"

Anyone know what openrg.home is?

Should I allow or block this connection?

Thanks much.

netbiosd is a normal system process used for networking. If you do not want sharing services enabled then de-select them in System Preferences > Sharing.


Uninstall "Norton". Your Mac will not operate properly with it installed.


One or more of the following may be applicable:


Uninstall Norton Internet Security for Mac


Removing Symantec programs for Macintosh by using the RemoveSymantecMacFiles removal utility


RemoveSymantecMacFiles
