I have Windows Vista and every time I log onto my computer the Windows Security Center pops up saying my firewall is turned off and I have to manually turn it on every single time. Also, the Windows Defender does the same thing and when I try to manually turn it back it, it somehow goes off again within a short period of time or it just doesn’t turn on at all. Can anyone help me out please?
I have norton internet security 2009 and I was wondering how to make an exception for my firewall? It’s been so long since I’ve had to do it and I’m sure it’s right under my nose knowing my luck but I could really use the help.
I just noticed in the Windows Vista Security center that both windows firewall and webroot internet security are running at the same time. it says they could conflict (which I know) but I can’t remember which, if either, I should turn off.
