Ninjatrader Continuum connection error

[philmg]

Hi, please see the 3rd log message from the top. Somehow the connection does not work anymore, which it did fine yesterday. What does this error mean?

Hello philmg,

This error message usually indicates that your firewall or other security suite blocks NinjaTrader's internet access.

Please ensure any such application (e.g. Norton, Kaspersky, BitDefender) has NinjaTrader on the exception list or temporarily disable them to see if this resolves the error.

Should you experience any further issues, please don't hesitate to let us know!

Looks like Avast Free Antivirus caused this. I disabled it, then restarted NT and it connects fine. Then enable Avast again and the NT connection remains on. Weird. Avast also didnt show any interference with NT.
