Type ICF into the textbox of Find on top Lt corner of the Help and Support
page. The first item under Pick A Task is Enable or Disable Internet
Connection Firewall. Click that and you will find all the information in
the Rt pane. (For explanation of To open the Internet Connection, read the
Notes halfway down the pane.)

If you are still lost, go back to Yahoo. They are pretty good at this sort
of questions. Or, of course, come back here!
