gpags, thanks for the hint. I installed 2.5 and tried it out. It did not fix the problem, although like before I can get to the bookstore by simply disabling the firewall.

I also got a very general, non-helpful reply back from Sony from my specific question (I asked "What HTTP Ports does eBook Library 2.2 use? Any firewall setting reqmts info would be appreciated", and was instead told how to set proxy setting in Internet Explorer and how to find Symantec's website).

Not a big problem...I can disable the firewall whenever I browse the bookstore, but annoying nonetheless: Symantec provides firewall options which would help if Sony could help me in turn.

I'll keep trying different solutions when I feel like playing with Symantc and the library some more. It's hard to get too annoyed after spending another hour or so reading a few more chapters in my PRS500. I love it!
