Firewall Security Centre

[Guest GH5]

All of a sudden I cannot access the internet. I get the message that the firewall is turned off. When I attempt to turn it on I get another message saying 'unable to access the Firewall Security Centre. Can anyone help with this problem please? Thanks.

There is no built-in Vista "Firewall Security Center". What

antivirus/security program(s) do you have installed? If you have an older

version of ZoneAlarm, this is a known problem with ZA and recent Windows

Updates. Uninstall ZA and if you really feel you must use it (not

recommended), install the latest version.

 

Otherwise, post back with the missing details so you can get focused help.
