I have recently installed (clean install) XP Pro on a
laptop. I find that in attemptng to turn on the Internet
firewall, the Advanced tab on the Propeties box is not
there. I tried re-installing XP Pro as an upgrade, but
the Advanced tab is still missing. I am runing Norton
Antivirus 2004, MS Office 2003 Standard for studnets and
teachers, Nero Unltra 6.0, Quicken 2003, AdAware, and
Epson scanner software. How do I correct this so that the
Advanced tab is available to me? Do I have corrutption of
something or a virus, or what?

Thanks,

JIm
 
I had this issue last week...seemed to be a problem with
the SP 1 install...be sure you go and locate each
requested file when installing SP 1.
 
Thanks, but the Windows CD is new enough that it included
SP1 during the original clean install. I've had one
suggestion that I have a Windows component not installed
(a service not installed). I will check this.
