Have just installed a new version of Norton 360 and I get a message that my browser is not set to detect fraudulent websites. How can I set Firefox to do this detection?

Update Norton 360 via online, not manually.

This didn't solve the problem - Firefox still is set for antiphishing

In Firefox - Tools > Options -> Security

Are Block reported attack sites and Block reported web forgeries both selected?
Those are the prefs in Firefox which control anti-phishng. Those 2 prefs are selected by default when Firefox is installed.

Yes, both Block reported attack sites and Block reported web forgeries are selected? I have Norton 360 for 3 computers - a desktop, a laptop & a netbook. This problem only occurs on the laptop. As far as I can see each computer has the latest version of 360 and of Firefox.
