First step is to uninstall norton completely, reboot and try again. There may be some conflict with the built in windows firewall, assuming your new PC is Windows 10.

Truthfully, you don’t need a 3rd party firewall with windows 10. The built in firewall is pretty secure.

When you install uTorrent, it makes exceptions in the windows firewall for you so, after you remove Norton, you may need to reinstall uTorrent to get those exceptions properly set.
