Firewall

[Daniel]

I just installed XP and if anyone could tell me how to
set up the firewall that already comes with the
software. I checked the network connects to do it but
the tab for advanced is not there.

If anyone could help me I thank you very much

Daniel

Do you use AOL?
AOL is not compatible with the Windows XP firewall.
If that is the case, you need to contact AOL and install a 3rd party
firewall.

In addition, the Advanced tab and the Internet Connection Firewall
aren't available on a Network Bridge connection.
