Does anyone know how to toggle the settings on NIS so I can actually get through the network to my DH's computer without temporarily disabling the firewall? Or how to permanently disable the settng that blocks out the network?

Since the software came (free) with my new motherboard, there isn't a manual to tell me what to do! :-(

Hi Kat!

Here is what I found in my NIS help section about networking.

On the left side of the Norton Internet Security window, click Personal Firewall > Internet Zone Control.
In the Internet Zone Control pane, click Wizard.
Click Next to begin the Wizard.
In the resulting list, check the network adapters that you want configured automatically and added to your Trusted zone.
Click Next.
Click Finish to close the Home Network Wizard.

I almost forgot to thank you! ;-)

Not only am I managing to play mp3's off of DH's computer, it even let me print! YAY!
