116509 2003-01-25 22:34:00 Okay, I'll be the first to show my ignorance :8}

What's NIS and why worry about !! flashing if everything else is OK?

The flashing is just indicating that NIS has intercepted a possible attack but you'll not need to worry about it since Nortons has stopped it. You'll just have to put up with the flashing until the Admin returns. Since it'll give the Admin a message on what the attack was.
