Symantec appreciates you pointing this mistype on the web FAQ out to us,
the Windows
Firewall should not have been included as a part of this answer. The
correction
has been made to the posted page and should read as follows:
Q: Which Symantec products will the product update apply to?
A: The product update applies to customers who use Symantec Client
Security, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition, and Symantec AntiVirus
Enterprise Edition if their client systems are not members of a Windows
domain. This is because Windows XP Service Pack 2 does not enable the
Windows Security Center if it detects that the computer is a member of a
Windows domain. It also applies to administrators who choose to enable the
Windows Security Client in a domain. Product updates for other Symantec
products may be released in the future but none are scheduled at this
time.
Symantec apologizes for any confusion this may have caused.
