As of the 2005 edition, go to Norton Personal Firewall. Click Configure. Click Custom Level. Then check the box that says “Enable Control Access alerts”. Then Norton will give you a pop up that allows you to permit Xfire to connect to the internet. You can also do this manually. Configure> Programs tab> Click Add. Browse to the xfire.exe. (Default is C:\Program Files\Xfire) You may need to also add xfire_exception.exe to the list as well. You will have to repeat this everytime Xfire updates, since the firewall will view Xfire as a new or changed program.
