Its pretty easy to do, just type 'firewall' into the start menu, and one of the results should be 'let a program through firewall'. |

| 1291715 | 2012-07-30 23:38:00 | Is it like ZA that asks when new programs try to access the net. I hate it the way so many programs want to access the net when there's no real reason for them to | kiwibits (5574) | ||

Like you I rather like ZA because so many programs in Windows want to connect to the net when half the time they have no real need and if I am connecting via my cell phone I don't want them gobbling up my data. |
