il_wiccan Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Story here Windows Firewall flaw may hide open portsLink to fix...An exception may not show up in the Windows Firewall graphical user interface if you create the exception by modifying the registry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDoors Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) A flaw in MicroSoft software? That's SO hard to believe! I take it the XP firewall does NOT automatically update, as most aftermarket firewalls do? <edit> Oh, wait, I see, the fix will be included with the next service patch. Whenever that is. Nevermind.

JDoors Posted September 3, 2005 Report Share Posted September 3, 2005 DO NOT get defensive about using the XP firewall: It's a bajillion times better than not using one at all. Or is that a kajillion? Kerjillion? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
