SP-1 is not relevant especially since SP-1 does not enable the firewall by
default like SP-2 does.

Windows Firewall was not part of SP1. ICF is but that is different.

Different yes, protection offered to prevent intrusions from the outside,
they are the same.
Both as well as other firewalls would prevent the issue the OP has.
The firewall is enabled the same way for Windows XP Gold, SP-1 and SP-2.
So the type of firewall is irrelevant to this thread.
