I wanted to see if my firewall was on. I went into "Security Center".
The message on top said that the service was unavailable because it was
either shut off or never activated. I went into it anyway and my
firewall was indeed off- I turned it on. Everytime I shut the compuyter
off (Dell Inspriron notebook), the firewall shuts off. How do I turn on
the Security Center? I tried to "google" it, but there was nothing on
turning it on.

I went into my Norton Internet Security program and it said that my
personal firewall was on.

I know very little about computers and I'm confused- can anyone help?

PS- Please do not try to email me; my webtv is not working!
 
I suggest you post in a Windows XP newsgroup.
However, if you have Norton Internet Security firewall running, and
are happy with it, you do not need the Windows XP firewall.
 
you might try microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers or
microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics - this newgroup is for Frontpage.
