Problems in XP Firewall and in Internet Connection after install S
Posted by Nw3 on October 5th, 2005


Hi

I have installed Windows XP Professional Edition and I have a ADSL
connection to the internet.
I installed XP SP2, after this installation I cannot turn on the XP Firewall.

I choose the firewall tab in control panel, it says that is going to start
WF/ICS service and then it shows the Firewall Panel with Enabe and Disable
option in grey and disabled.

I check in the Services and ICS service is strated.

The internet access is ok for 4-5 minutes, and after that, even I'm still
connected, all the Internet sites that I try to connect to show me Page Not
Displayed message.

Could you please help me?

Thanks
Nuno

reboot

machine?Also check your group policy.
