Step
7: With the left mouse button, click on the down arrow to the
right of 'Microsoft Generic Host Process for Win32 Services'
next to 'Blocked All' and select 'Permit All', below
the Internet Access column.
Repeat step 7 for 'Microsoft Internet Explorer' or the web
browser you are using.
Note: While you are in this
section, it would be wise to repeat step 7 for all of the programs
and services you are familiar with, such as the Microsoft Printer
Spooler Service, which firewalls tend to block sooner or later,
causing major problems with installing a printer. The items you
set to 'Permit All' will usually not be blocked later by
the firewall. If you are unsure what an item is or does, perform
a Google search on it by typing it's name in the search box exactly
as it appears in the list. Of course you can use other search engines
too.
