nitroshift Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 If you upgraded to sp2 it will show in the add/remove programs list, so you can uninstall it from there, restart and reinstall it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 You can use Dial-a-fix to reinstall/repair the firewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarun Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 You can hit the green checkmark and click go to repair the common items. For the firewall, you'll need to click the Tools button (hammer) and select it from the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
