Hi
     You may need to configure the fire wall to work with the programs you 
are using. A fire wall keeps programs from accessing the web with out your 
permission. So, one may want to authorize the windows fire wall to allow the 
programs that need to access the web to get updates. Other wise the fire 
wall thinks the program is trying to give your personal information to 
someone on the internet.

God bless,
Mark
God loves you!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Firewalls?


>I have JAWS 6.0 and XP I am on DSL.
> .
> After reading one of the messages, on this list,  I looked in my "control 
> panel" and found that my "Windows" firewallwas off.
> I clicked it on.
> Since then, I have had a terrible time with my MacAfee and Spybot.
> My MacAfee says that I am not protected and I can not click on the "fix" 
> symbol. Even my sighted wife says it doesn't work with the mouse.
> For some reason, prior to this,  I was getting a message from MacAfee that 
> it was updating and downloading a "anti spam" file.
>
> I also have been getting a lot of messages from Spybot that ask if I want 
> to allow or deny certain files that have a MacAfee title to it.
> I usually click "allow".
> I recently updated the new beta version of Spybot.
>
> I went back to "un check the"Windows" firewall but this did not change the 
> MacAfee or Spybot messages.
>
> My questions are. Do I need the "Windows" firewall checked? and why or why 
> not.
> Also, if I want to un install Spybot how should I do it? It seems to be 
> interfering  more often.
>
> Thank you.
