Hi, Every time I start my Vista Home Premium, I get the message (with a lock as icon) that "the computer failed to connect to a Windows remote service" and that "This leads to unlimited users not being able to connect to this computer." Then I get a suggestion to check the event log to read about details. Moreover, when i try to check my firewall settings, there is no way windows displayes them, but at the same time the firewall is running according to the "check this computers security settings". I also fail on changing the settings for my private home network to become visible. Please, help me figure this out. I am concidering turning the windows firewall of and get another firewall solution, although reluctantly. |

Question #1 - did you check the event log, as recommended? What information does the event log provide? Not using the native Microsoft firewall, out of frustration, does not bode well for your being able to install or properly configure a 3rd party application either. The 'lock' is an indication that a security event was triggered or reported. You really need to check the log, fix the reported issue before just restarting the firewall over and over, something is wrong, there is an issue that needs to be addressed.
