Hi,

For some reason the settings for my windows firewall is grayed out and set
to on. I want it to be off since it interferes with our corporate firewall.
We have everyone turn of their firewall but I no longer can do this. The
userId has administrative rights so it is not a permissions thing. I have
tried logging on as the network administrator but it remains grayed out and
set to on. Can someone help?

Thanks,
