why does my firewall turn off a minute after completeing all my personals on
startup?i have sp2,xp, it has done this right after i installed windows
antispyware program then ran it then i rebooted like it told me to do i was
running this in the first place cause i was trying to figure out how to get
rid of my document folder loading on my desktop at start up i went through my
registry and the value was set right and now i have this problem with
firewall alert saying its turned off oh please help thanks Darryl

Zombone why bother with XP's firewall when there is an even better one? Just
download the free version of zone alarm. Disable the windows firewall and
then install zonealarm. Zonealarm gives you far more control over what comes
into and what goes out of your pc.

xp firewall wasnt coming back on. Very helpful thanks!
