How can you find all the firewall software running on a
system.
windows 98SE
Its a laptop
Will send out to internet will not recieve from internet

1. Look in your installed Program (Start>Programs).
2. Ctrl-Alt-Del will show what is running.
3. Start>Run msconfig [enter] to see what is set to run at startup.

If you want more help, then a) probably you should post in a newsgroup
for Windows 98 (this one is for Windows XP); b) include a lot more
detail about your computer, your method of connection to the Internet,
your ISP, and what "will not receive from internet" actually means.

Here is a list of all the MS newsgroups so you can find the ones for
Windows 98:

Win 98 did not have a firewall built-in [Xp only just got one with SP2}.

Did you install one with Norton Internet Security, Zone Alarm or other
company's product.

Only you can remember or tell what you put on your PC.

Press CTL+ALT+DEL to see what applications or tasks are running and you can
quickly determine if there is an active firewall application.
