Rerunning the CEICW will disable any Access Policy elements you
manually create (ie S&C Rules, Protocol Rules, Packet Filters). It
won't do anything to any of the components within Policy Elements
(Protocol Defn's, Client Sets, etc.).

Yes, you can set this in IE. It's under Tools > Internet Options >

You _should_ be able to set this via GPO, but I don't have any
specifics. Manipulating IE through GPO always seems to work out harder
than it ought to.

The default FTP protocol definitions don't deal with the active element
on port 20. So you need to create your own, that has the primary
connection on TCP/21 (like the predefined protocols), and a Secondary
Connection of TCP/20/Inbound. Then add a Protocol Rule to Allow your
new Protocol for Any Request.
The packet filters that are defined are for the server itself, and also
apply to clients where the firewall client is installed.

See above.
