Give your answer to this question below!
Either get firewall protection or get off the net. Sorry, but your pc’s not yours if you’re connected to the net without a firewall.
If you’ve got Kaspersky AV only (not KIS) you need a firewall. Try Online Armor or Comodo. You might find OA easier to use.

When you turn on the Windows version of your Firewall it should stay on unless you turn it off.
Use RevoUninstaller to remove remnants of Norton:

It’s faster and better than add / remove applet.
When you run it highlight the item then select uninstall in next window select Advanced and click Next, follow prompts when uninstalled it will scan registry and drive for leftover files / folders,click + sign to expand all results and tick ONLY the bold items and follow prompts.
If Kaspersky is just the antivirus then I suggest that you download and install Online Armor Free Firewall:
