Just make sure you don't have 2 firewalls running at the same time - that spells trouble. Security suites have a tendency to turn their own firewalls on and turn the Vista firewall off.

I tried this (services.msc) but nothing it doesn't turn windows firewall on. When i press "start" opens a window "Services" saying:"Windows could not start the Windows Firewall service on Local Computer. Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start." But before installing "AVG 8.0 Free"
