Hello,
I have found on several client (32bit - XP pro ITA) recently updated with
SP3 a bug on windows firewall.

If I add the port 135 TCP on the exception, the exception added disappears
from the list of exceptions after pressing OK.

If I try to re-add the exception the system says there's already an
exception like that: indeed I can find it with regedit in the registry, but
it is not displayed in the list.

Is this problem present also in the english version? Is there a way to solve
it?

Thanks.
 
From the Command Prompt type:
netstat /ano
Either you are 'listening' or not. What the Windows Firewall reports is a
bit moot. You are probably seeing some Permissions problem in the registry.
