Did you know? Firewalls can block you from accessing your own shared
folders and files!
Firewalls are great, but if not properly configured, they can cause
many problems on a network. For instance, programs and games that
used to work fine begin to start crashing (freezing) the computer,
computers start disappearing from the network, and shared folders/files
can no longer be accessed ('Access denied',. '... is not
accessible', and 'You might not have permission...',
'Contact the administrator...', printing over the network
stops working, etc.). Properly configure your firewall to avoid
these problems.
If you are experiencing problems after installing the McAfee
personal firewall plus, walkthrough the tutorial below and learn
how to configure the firewall so that it does not cause any further
problems on your computer or network of computers.
Follow the steps below to configure the McAfee personal firewall
plus.
