I follow the process Control Panel, Network and Internet
Connections, Network Connections, right click on
particular connection, select properties and there is no
Advanced Tab that it says to select which should take you
to the option for enabling and diabling the Firewall.

If you have AOL:

America Online installs its own connection settings that override
the ones that come with Windows XP. America Online's
connection settings don't include a way to turn on Windows XP's
built-in firewall.

Visit the following web site for instructions on downloading
a FREE firewall program for your computer.
