With NAV functioning ¡°properly¡± can you do a sudo ipfw list and post the results?

Thanks

Greetings.  I have a problem where Norton AntiVirus 11 is preventing ssh connections on my Leopard macs (including my own) which in turn is preventing me from using Casper to deploy software updates.  I've made sure Remote Login is on and that the Firewall is allowing connections.

It's as if port 22 keeps toggling off despite the GUI saying otherwise. Here's the message I get when I try to ssh into one of the macs:
XXX-XXXXX:~ xxxxxxxx$ ssh -vvv x.x.x.x
OpenSSH_5.1p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7l 28 Sep 2006
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to x.x.x.x http://x.x.x.x port 22.
debug1: connect to address x.x.x.x port 22: Connection refused
ssh: connect to host x.x.x.x port 22: Connection refused

The problem goes away when I uninstall NAV 11.  It temporarily goes away when I run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions.  I am able to ssh in for about 10-15 minutes before my connection is refused.  Here¡¯s a log:

This problem is consistent from 10.5-10.5.6.  Anyone else run into this one?
