I am having some trouble with utorrent and getting an open port, I narrowed the problem to either windows firewall or kaspersky 8 or even both. If i disable firewall and kaspersky I can get an open port, but once I turn them on utorrent slows down indicating the port is not open. I have included utorrent as allowed in widows firewall but same problem. Has anyone had same prob or got some advice on what I should try?
Why Bitdefender firewall blocks utorrent port only on windows 7?
I'm using Windows 7 ultimate RTM with all the updates, utorrent 1.8.5 and bitdefender Internet security 2010. The firewall is set to "allow known programs" and utorrent was put automatically on "allow", but if I try a port test it shows that port doesn't appear to be open.
I had the same settings on my windows vista ultimate and the port was always open.
I used to have the occasional problem with utorrent, but now that I have gone to Windows 7, I seem unable to get it to work. There seems to be a firewall problem, so I disabled Windows firewall - which I have read is very good, and I think did allow utorrent - and have now put in comodo instead.
Then I read that if you have a firewall on your router, you do not need to have another one installed as well.
I am now really confused with all this.
Just checked and have at last got a green tick on utorrent - all be it slow, at least it is working whoops, just gone off again.
Any advice on utorrent or the firewall situation would be gratefully recieved.
I'm currently sharing my internet connection with another computer (both run windows 7). The other computer can only access the internet if the computer holding the dial up connection has windows firewall turned off. I tried to add an exception in windows firewall for port 80 but did not have any effect.The local area connection adapter on the computer that's holding the internet connection has the following settings: [code] the other computer has obtain IP and DNS address automatically Using ADSL modem is a Sagem F@st 800 to connect to the internet no router used, just a simple cat-45 cable (i think that's the name of the cable!)
I have a fresh install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit on a new hard drive.
I have only installed 5 programs. CorelDraw, Adobe Creative Suite CS3, Jing (screen capture utility) Webroot Antivirus -Anti-Spyware for Windows 7 and WIDCOMM Bluetooth software for Win 7.
I installed Corel and Adobe...rebooted ...everything was fine.
I installed Webroot and WIDCOMM...rebooted...absolutely no internet connection.
I uninstall WIDCOMM then reboot. Still no internet.
I uninstall Webroot then reboot. Still no internet.
I reboot and then turn off Windows Firewall...reboot again. I have internet.
I turn Windows Firewall back on and reboot. No internet.
I turn Windows Firewall back off, reboot. I have internet.
So, I do a System Restore to the point before I installed the Webroot and WIDCOMM software and I have internet and it works fine.
Why would either of these software effect windows firewall in such a way as to disable internet access?
Is there some setting that I need to change / allow or something inside of Windows Firewall? I find it odd that with the firewall disabled I am able to get on the internet, but with it enabled, I can't at all.
I used the standard trick of assigning permissions to the "Everyone" group to allow file sharing among all the Windows 7 and winXP computers on my home network. All was working fine until my son took his computer to school and they made him load their security software. When he came home for the summer, his computer could still see the network and file shares, but none of the other computers could see his shared files. This persisted even after I uninstalled the anti-virus software they made him install. I can fix the problem by disabling the windows firewall on his computer. That is probably safe here because of the firewall in my router, but I'm worried that might not be safe when he connects to other networks. Plus I can leave the windows firewall enabled on all my other computers, so I suspect there should be a better way around this problem. If I click "Diagnose" when my computer can't access my son's computer I get a message that says that windows can't find IPC$. So on my son's computer I opened a dos window and typed "net share ipc$" (a command I found from a google search about this problem). The response to this command was "System error 5 has occured; Access Denied".
when i surf the internet about 50% of the time i get the error "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". And when i hit the troubleshoot tab it states "security or firewall settings might be blocking connection"
I've tried both Comodo and ZA firewalls. I prefer either over Windows 7 built-in firewall. The problem I have is after installing either of these I have control issues with Network Discovery and File Sharing. More exactly, even though the system shows these two items are off and/or disabled (manually), Start> Computer> Network will start showing available computers to connect to, whereas, Windows 7 firewall will inform me that both items are turned off. I use a public WiFi so this is obviously not a good thing. How to deal with this 3rd party firewall/File Sharing issue? Is the fact that the 3rd party firewalls are blocking any connection attempts a sign that everything is okay? Or should I just stay with Windows 7 firewall?
I have a Linksys WRT160N v2 and i play a lot of games, and enjoy hosting games.however there are too many ports to forward. I was wondering that if i turned off my routers firewall would this eliminate me having to port forward? and if i could do that how would i. I know how to access my router so you can give instructions form that point of if you would like
I seem to have had a surge of spam. Many supposedly from "techdaily at (various domains)" Any others have this?Whats the specific difference between blocking the sender versus blocking the senders domain?

Recently had a virus infection and noticed that the windows firewall service is missing. When trying to reset to recommended settings by using control panel received error code 0x80070424. Cannot access other computers or shared files/folders on home network. Saw a previous post dated 12-17 that appears to be the same problem.
Whenever I try to run the Kaspersky Pure anti-virus, nothing happens. I tried to uninstall it so I can reinstall it. But uninstalling the program is not possible, too. The window is just there but the green bar isn't moving for hours. So I have no choice but to forcibly close the uninstall window.How can I make this anti-virus work again?
my kaspersky pure won't turn on and in action centre when i click "turn kaspersky pure on (important)" nothing happens it won't turn on i repaired the installation it works but after i restart it is turned off again and won't turn on and it does not even update it always stuck at 0%

We just bought a HP Dv4 with Windows Vista Home Premium with the option to upgrade to Windows 7. We choose Windows 7 Professional and upgraded the notebook. We have Kaspersky Lab Enterprise on our server with 25 users. Now Kaspersky 2009 is saying it is not compatible with Windows 7. Any solutions?
I am trying to upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Home Premium and I am getting an error saying the installation cannot continue because Kaspersky anti-virus is stopping the process. It asks me to look for it in the Control Panel and uninstall it.
Now, I would be happy to do so, but as far as I know, I have never installed Kaspersky AV, nor does it appear in the programs to uninstall. I have seen that there are a few people around who have had this problem, but I have seen to resolution to it, other than suggesting that a clean install be done. Obviously I can do that, but I really want to avoid it. I have too much stuff I'd have to re-install.
I have tried disabling other virus programs (as far as I know, I only have one provided by my ISP). I disabled Windows Defender. I also banged my head against a wall.
Anyone seen this? Why would it think a program is there, when it is not.
I have Windows 7 64 bit and the Action Center reports Kaspersky Problems, but I do not have it installed on my PC (see below) - why would this be and should i do anything abo*** Just did a full Virus scan and no virus found*** Using MS Security Essentials = ON*** MS Windows defender = OFF Address a problem with Kaspersky Internet Security or Anti-VirusKaspersky Internet Security or Anti-Virus has stopped working properly.A newer version of Kaspersky Internet Security or Anti-Virus is available for download that might solve this problem. Kaspersky Lab recommends updating to the latest version of Kaspersky Internet Security or Anti-Virus to take advantage of security and stability
