We're not sure why Norton doesn't like ppsync.exe.

We've heard of this before. Last time, it was because one of the files ppsync was copying contained, what Norton believed to be, a virus. Another time it was a strict setup of Norton that would alarm at any background program that seemed to be "secretly" accessing files.

If this persists, please add ppsync.exe to your Norton exception list.

How do I prevent Norton from reading this network traffic as malicious...

Clearly Pogoplug did not attack or damage your computer, it's a false positive being reported by Norton AntiVirus.

How to prevent NAV from reading as malicious? That would be a question for Symantec customer support, have you posted your question with them? It's obvious that this is a false positive, so Symantec needs to fix it.

So, you are saying that there is no way a PogoPlug could be hacked to originate an attack or be hijacked so as to be the vector for an attack.  Was that true of Sony Playstations, too?  I assume that Macbooks can't be hacked either.  "Clearly", without some evidence to back up your statement, you have no credibility.   Nonetheless, if you are correct (and I suspect that you are), it should be PogoPlug's responsibility to contact Symantec and clear this up for all of its customers.  Clearly, it would be poor customer service for PogoPlug to take the stance that each of its customers would need to work with Symantec independently on such an issue.

Jeesh, that was harsh. Clearly you were offended by my use of a single word, sorry `bout that.
