| | RE: Windows firewall. inbound connections that do not have an exce Hi Jesper. Thank you for your reply. I was trying to ping this computer and others but only getting through on two of the four computers on my network. I was also getting an error message from the windows firewall. I think it is ok though. I have installed Microsoft windows live one care. and everything is ok. "Jesper" wrote: Quote: > Yes.
