How did you enable the firewall in Windows 2000 pro ??
There is no build in firewall in Windows 2000 (like there is in
Windows XP).
I assume there is firewall software installed on your PC, e.g.
Zonealarm.
Try to figure out what firewall software is installed, I'm sure
it has some documentation too.

Hi,

This would depend on the specific firewall you have installed. You can
always reomve the firewall by going into Add/Remove Programs in Control
Panel. You may also be able to disable it by going into Services and
finding the firewall service and disabling it (again this depends on the
firewall software registering itself as a service).

Where do I find Registry settings to open Services Window to a different placement
and size as a default setting. ?

Greetings --

Well, since Win2K has no built-in firewall, you'll have to read
the instructions that came with whatever 3rd-party firewall you've
installed.
