RE: SP1 and ICS

I found this before when the Windows Firewall started causing issues, it
ended up being firewall settings that weren't displayed in the gui to the
user, I think I manually edited the registry to remove them. That was XPSP2
but they may have fixed in the 2k3SP3. Just a thought,

Hope that helps


Cheers, Simmo
