XP Firewall turned off by default - Norton Internet Security 2006



This question has already been discussed, I am just after some
confirmation to eradicate any doubts.

I run XP (SP2), NIS 2006. I no longer want to run the NIS Firewall. Is
there any way to run NIS (exluding its firewall) and turn the Windows
firewall on by default? At the moment, I have to turn it on manually
every time I start the computer.I gather from previous posts that
running NIS means you cannot set the Windows firewall to be on by
default.
