You'll need to go into the firewall section of Norton, find Warcraft 3 and add an exception to allow all traffic. Alternatively, if you can just whitelist select port ranges on norton you could do it that way.
Also make sure Windows Firewall is disabled, as that only causes problems when you want to allow incoming connections.
Turn off Norton (probably is a temporary disable feature) and give it a go. Mayhaps the problem is elsewhere, like if you are behind a router that you'd need to forward ports on (probable, if you are hosting over the net).
Didn't work maybe I'm doing it wrong?
if it didnt work after disabling norton then your problem is elsewhere. put your computer on the DMZ of your router temporarily and try again, if that works something with your router port settings need to be fixed
