I am sometimes on Windarossa's computer, and she has to enable "I am behind a firewall or proxy". I how do I turn off a firewall on a computer using Windows? Please people, I am computer illiterate...and need a step by step guide.

depends.

if you have macaffee (newest one) do the following.

1.right click the macaffee icon in the lower right corner of your screen.

2. go to personal firewall

3. then go to disable.

i havent tried to host after i disable it........tell me if it works

if she has a modem, go to network settings.
then right-click on the modem connection she is using.
after that click properties, click on the advanced tab.
now you have control over everything about her network connections, firewall, connection sharing etc.

Thankyou everyone for your support... now... is there anything that I should worry about now that the firewall is down? Like... any fundamental things I should know about firewalls?
