XP Firewall won't let me connect

[Guest]

Here is my issue.. I have everything setup for a remote
web connection.
Everything is ok: I've checked the box on the properties
on my computer on the remote tab allowing users to
connect to my computer
My XP firewall is enable AND I DID enter in settings and
checked the box on Remote Desktop to allow port 3389 to
be available.

the problem is when i type http://myipaddress/tsweb I get
the message that the page could not be show (just like
when u type a non-existing address)
HOWEVER when I disable XP firewall and type again
http://myipaddress/tsweb I can connect ok to my pc from a
remote area...
Any ideas why the XP firewall is not letting me connect
even tho I did check on the Services tab the Remote
Desktop???

thank you in advance
Ricardo

You also need to allow TCP Port 80 traffic for IIS through the ICF.
