I'm working on a project where my application sends e-mail messages. I
have Norton Personal Firewall and it throws up the popup window saying:

* " is attempting to access the internet." *

Apparently NPF doesn't know what to call the application. Where does
NPF get the application name from? How would I be able to pass the
application name to outside applications like NPF? Is there a property
I'm forgetting to set? Thanks.
 
Hi,

Why dont you try opening up assemblyinfo.vb and set the Assembly
information and recompile. Norton probably displays the AssemblyTitle or
AssemblyProduct.

If you are using VS.NET/VB.NET as IDE, have a look at the
"AssemblyInfo.vb" file and the attributes included in this file.
