this is torture !!!

need help.
asap.

a friend and I put norton 05 on my computer.
We couldn't get aim to work
she finally did
we didn't remember what it was done to fix it.
i unplugged it from the campus network today to go to a friend's apartment
everything worked fine there on their wireless.

get back here
plug in
and aim/yahoo im doesn't work


what do I need to do for things to work??

(and don't say "dont use norton it sucks etc... blablabla")

Did you go into norton's options--->internet---->instant messenger..and then see if IM Chats are checked and configured?

Sorry under influence of cold meds (/rude Mister's germs) but that was my first thought...

Check your firewall and make sure it's not blocking it?

its working and i have no idea what I did to make it work.
i didn't touch norton, i was surfing lit for answers.
i attempted in vain to start up aim again
and it worked
*sigh*

i did check the firewall though, that wasn't the problem, it was one of the first things I checked.
thank you
