Thanks for the tips John. However, this, and any other tips I've found, all
point to letting certain things through the firewall. If I've got the the
whole firewall disabled, should I really need to worry about this? Is the
firewall really disabled? Should I enable it just so I can disable certain
parts of it? This is extremely frustrating.
