    I have Norton Internet Security 2005 and at the same time I also have a wireless network (Peer to peer) between my Desktop and Laptop.
    The problem I keep having is that sometimes the communication breaks down or I can't view the other computer in "View Workgroup Computer ".

    I have a feeling it is NIS 2005 that is doing it. Can't be sure though.
    How do I make both computers show up permanently in "View Workgroup Computer" all the time?

    Thanks

    I haven't used NIS for several years, but you should be able to permit access for your computers in the firewall configuration some where. I don't know if this link will help you out, but take a look and see.

    Look at the section "To configure the AutoBlock component to permit all traffic from certain computers or Web sites." for the steps.
