maybe its not the firewall, maybe MySQL server is listens only to localhost, open the configuration file(my.cnf) and look for "bind-address=127.0.0.1" and put a remark. I usually find this option whenever I get MySQL from xAMP package.
another, maybe the user that you have created also listens only to localhost. ex. 'user'@'localhost' gandang araw po!
