I have Norton Internet Security 2004. The firewall says it has created
390 rules. How can I view these?

The reason I ask, is I was doing something on my local computer, and a
Norton popup came up and said "win32.exe" was trying to access the
internet (recommend OK). Since I wasn't doing anything on the net, I
told it to block it (without thinking). I could no longer access the
internet with the firewall on after this. I looked under programs, and
could not find that this program was blocked. Finally, I went to the
logs, and it showed I created a rule (which I couldn't find) to block
SVCHOST.exe (oops). In desperation, I created a rule for SVCHOST.exe,
and a popup says there already was a rule to BLOCK SVCHOST.exe, and I
changed it to permit. How can I find ALL these rules? I do not like
Norton--it works well, but it is confusing.
