To disable Windows Firewall, follow these steps:

Go to Start > Control Panel > Security > Windows Firewall > Change Settings, and then click onto Off in the General tab. Click OK to apply this setting.

Re: Windows Live OneCare

I tried that and I keep getting a message saying your firewall is turned off. Go to your secuity center now to turn it on. But I already have a firewall running. I just have to ignore it and make sure my own firewall is running.
