Third party firewalls

[manny]

Is there a fix yet or a work around for using personal
firewalls with XP on a network. I just upgraded to XP
professional and installed Tiny personal firewall 2.0.15
and noticed I could not browse our LAN. I read an
article on Microsft's knowledge base that said third
party firewall will prevent you from browsing the
network. Is there any way to go around this?

Configure the firewall program to allow access by computers on your
local area network. I'm sorry, but I don't know how to do that with
Tiny.
