Nass,
I have tried both of your suggestions (Run Command &
the Firewall.reg) and restarted after each. The Firewall
is on when it first starts but turns itself off.
I have read the other links you sent and tried those but still
the same thing. Any other suggestions?
Michelle
Okay Michelle, try this reg and reboot your machine:

If the above didn't help try this:
Open a run command and copy and paste this line in:
