I have NIS 2005 (just upgraded from NIS 2003 a couple weeks ago) and I do not have the email issue you describe. Sounds like a browser setting.

As for your share/ website, click on the NIS icon on your upper browser toolbar and then click on 'web contents options'. You should be able to see how the NIS is handling that website.

A couple years ago when I first got NIS 2003, I had problems on one forum. I could not post unless I disabled NIS. I went rounds with the webmaster but finally proved to him it was a faulty setting on his end. After I researched it and told him exactly what setting he had wrong, he fixed it and I no longer had issues with his website. I'm just saying that sometimes the problem can be poorly written code at the website.

It should be computer "experts", not "geeks".

Find out what ports the music sharing software is using and make sure Norton hasn't blocked them.

I have a music file (1000K) in wav format that I'd like to upload and share. Does anyone know of a place that I can host this for free?



Thanks.

Try this link:
http://wiki.shareaza.com/static/FAQ....alFirewall2002

It is for older versions of NIS but it may still apply to your environment.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't you have to set up a port for shareaza through NIS? We use something similar where I work, and I had to configure port permissions for it. Also, if you're behind a router, that might have something to do with it too, but from the looks of it, it worked just before you installed NIS, so that shouldn't be an issue
