wratho Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 are you using Windows OneCare? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432002-windows-firewall/#findComment-587190261 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Posted February 13, 2006 Author Share Posted February 13, 2006 wratho said: are you using Windows OneCare? Nope. If i install it can i turn off the firewall in windows? Edit: Just tried to install it but came up with this AVG Free Edition 7.1 Setup cannot uninstall this program automatically. Please go to Add Remove Programs to uninstall the program. When you are finished, return to this page and click Continue.

Orange Posted February 13, 2006 Author Share Posted February 13, 2006 (edited) Nope can't get into Firewall, comes up with this crap :angry: I don't trust this tho 1. Open a CMD.exe prompt. 2. Type the following, pressing Enter after each line: net stop winmgmt del /q %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\Repository\FS\INDEX.BTR del /q %SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem\Repository\FS\OBJECTS.DATA 3. Shutdown and restart Windows XP. 4. Reconfigure ICS and ICF settings because step 2 causes them to be reset to factory defaults. The one in bold... It wont disable my net would it Edited February 13, 2006 by Orange Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/432002-windows-firewall/#findComment-587192142 Share on other sites More sharing options...
