windows internal internet conection firewall hangs

[mk]

hi y'@all,

having trouble wiht the build-in firewall of XP as it hangs
during startup. It gives an error message as follows:
EVENT_SERVICE_START_HUNG. Any clue how to get it up
working? Tried already the manual start option which did
not resolve the matter.

Appreciate your input

Cheers

When it's hung open a command prompt and type "sc queryex sharedaccess" and
post the results.
