it sounds like you are using aol.. the win xp firewall is not compatible with aol.. you could use the kerio 2.15 firewall, instead.. http://www.kerio.com/dwn/kpf2-en-win.exe . you can use gsplit to split the file onto floppies.. http://www.gdgsoft.com/download/gsplit.aspx .

If you re-establish connection & use "Internet Properties" ,"Setup" button you will get option to enable Firewall during setup.
