OK, let me get down to the point, when I go to open my Windows Firewall settings, an error message opccurs saying:


Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display the Windows Firewall Settings.


Let me also mention the reason why I attempted to go to the settings ihn the first place is because the computer stated that my internet connection is limited or disabled.


And also take note that I am posting this on a different computer.


Thanks to any one who can help.

Consider using a third party firewall because the XP firewall only blocks incoming data
