I'm running XP Pro with all current updates. I was reading about the built
in firewall and how to disable it if I had a router etc. Anyway, control
panel, network connections, properties and all I have is the general tab. I
believe that there should be two more, one being advanced. Any ideas or help
would be appreciated
Cheers Doug

If someone with multiple personalities threatens to kill himself, is it
considered a hostage situation?
 
Go to Start > Run and type: SERVICES.MSC , and hit enter.
Scroll down to "Internet Connection Firewall (ICF), right-click
on this service and select "Start". Then go back and enable your
firewall.

If you have AOL:

America Online installs its own connection settings that override
the ones that come with Windows XP. America Online's
connection settings don't include a way to turn on Windows XP's
built-in firewall.

Visit the following web site for instructions on downloading
a FREE firewall program for your computer.
