Go to this MS web page for links listing the hundred or so programs that

the Windows Firewall.

Those of you rushing to install this giant MS patch would be well advised to
read these articles before installing it... I pity the average home user who,
no doubt, will be lost in all the technical blah, blah trying to figure out
why their software no longer works after installing SP2.
