I had been getting a lot of pop ups and discovered my
firewall was not enabled. When I try to enable it I
get the following error:
An error occured while Internet connection sharing was
being enabled. The dependancy service or group failed to
start. Then, when click ok the box for the firewall
becomes unchecked I have to reload windows. That didn't
help the problem. I tried to let the internet connection
wizard set the firewall it says enabled hen done but the
box is not checked and I know it is not working by the
number of pop up I am getting. In advanced settings just
the top 2 are checked or my isp. Are there any others
that should be checked?

Greetings --

Right-click My Computer > Manage > Services and Applications >
Services. In the right-hand pane, scroll down to right-click on the
Internet Connection Firewall and select Properties. Click the
Dependencies Tab. Make sure that all of the listed system
components/services are shown as started in the Services list.

Normally, you will need to have the Application Layer Gateway
Service, the Network Connections, the Network Location Awareness, and
the Remote Access Connection Manager started.
