Windows Firewall

I am trying to turn off the Windows Firewall in Windows XP Pro Service Pack2
and the button is greyed out. I am logged on as the local administrator and
also domain admin and still the same.

Have tried the known ways of turning this off and no success.

Would be grateful if you could respond with a fix for this.

If you do not need the Internet Connection Sharing, turn off the
corresponding service for the ICS and the Firewall in the Control
Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.

Disable the Windows Firewall / ICS service in services.msc
