I installed the SPYWARE software, now I no longer have a
Firewall. Initially it was in my Norton software. But
Spyware turned it off and I cannot turn it on.
 
I'm having the same problem, also my laptop which is
connect to my home network reads my main computer, but
will not share the internet.

Try this solution from a post "NETWORK" earlier :

"Yesterday I posted a message to a topic called Firewall,
as I was one of the many noticing that if you install the
anti-spyware on WinXP SP2 it will cause the MS firewall
to stop working. I thought it was hilarious that MS
corrupted its own software. Today I found out they just
simply deleted the whole topic.

Well, today I found out that also my Network stopped
working. Now, this is less funny. Luckily I found another
topic that had a solution that would fix my Networking
issue. It turned out that it fixed both my issues. Let's
hope everything else is working fine. (Knock on wood) I
can't believe that MS publicizes a beta that has so many
problems with their own OS. Bon swat, here is the
solution:

Btw, think twice before installing this anti-spyware!!!
The intent is great but this version should not have been
released as a beta.

My Firewall as well as my network stopped working!!! But
the program at http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?
ttid=257 was able to restore them both!

Thanks to Brad for the link!"
