al244 Posted September 15, 2005 CID Share Posted September 15, 2005 I recently just got Pc-Cillin because I heard it's pretty good. My problem is that every time I open it, my Internet connection gets blocked. Even if I disable Pc-Cillin firewall, I still can't see any sites. I need to close it with the tray icon. Does anyone know what I can do, so that I can keep Pc-Cillin on while having an Internet connection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmer Posted September 15, 2005 CID Share Posted September 15, 2005 hmm.. that is an odd problem.. are you sure that you dont have the internet halt on? right click the icon an make sure that Halt internet traffic is not selected.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted September 16, 2005 CID Share Posted September 16, 2005 If the Halt is not on, try going into Network Security -> Personal Firewall -> *Choose your connection or click on the one that is chosen right now and click on Edit afterwards* -> In the connection profile window, go into the Exceptions List tab and make sure Internet Explorer has a check mark beside it.. It should be enabled by default and its a bit of a long shot, but it doesn't hurt to try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al244 Posted September 18, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 18, 2005 Halt is off, and I put a check mark next to every single thing. Even when the firewall is disabled I can't connect. Could the anti-virus be the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted September 18, 2005 CID Share Posted September 18, 2005 Do you have a router installed? Maybe Trend Micro blocks the attempts of the router or hub to connect to your pc and therefore enable that pc to connect to the internet.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the same thing.. Direct Connection setting with an SMC router.. Works fine for everything, and it was like that by default I think.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al244 Posted September 18, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 18, 2005 Yeah I'm on a Linksys WIreless-G Broadband Router thing. I tried all the profiles but none seem to work! Maybe I should get a different anti-virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmer Posted September 18, 2005 CID Share Posted September 18, 2005 dont get another one.. try reinstalling.. This should work no problem.. try pinging the router.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted September 18, 2005 CID Share Posted September 18, 2005 Try going into Network Security -> WiFi Detection and then click on Connected Computers.. Lets see if it recognizes any computers as connected to your network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
