If you have AOL, you cannot be using WinXP's built-in firewall;
the two are incompatible.

If you have an AOL dial-up Internet connection, it cannot be protected by
the Internet Connection Firewall in Windows XP. The firewall does not
interfere with the AOL connection. But you cannot configure AOL dial-up
connection software in the Network Connections folder on your Windows XP
computer, therefore you cannot turn on Internet Connection Firewall for such
connections. For help in securing an AOL dial-up Internet connection, you
should contact AOL

I have America Online Internet service. Can I use the Internet Connection
Firewall in Windows XP?
