TheTOM_SK Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Is Windows Firewall service disabled and stopped?Start - run - services.msc - Windows firewall service.By the way, do not believe, if Windows claims something, like that WF is not running.If you have a public IP, do a port scan here, to see, if you get closed or stealthed ports.

TheTOM_SK Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 was is the point of setting it off if it doesn't really set it off?To give users an illusion of control over the PC.Microsoft just tries to protect users from themself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
