Hey,
I've just got my first Mac (15' Macbook Pro). One of the the first things I did was turn on the firewall in the System Preferences. Following this I installed Office 2008. When I first opened any of the Office applications the firewall asked me to either to Allow or Deny a network connection. Obviously I clicked Allow the first time I launched each application. The firewall has remembered this for all of the programs except Word. Each time I open Word I'm presented with a box asking me to either Allow or Deny network access. As you can probably imagine this is becoming quite annoying!!
I've tried removing and re-adding the application in the advanced pane of the firewall but with no success. Being a novice in Mac OS (but quite quite an advanced Windows user) I don't know what to try next. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
