Assuming you have AOL, you'll need to install a third-party firewall.
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.
