    Block all traffic from an IP address

    Hi Folks

    I am attempting to create a rule that blocks all incoming traffic from a XP
    domain client.

    I create a new rule under "Inbound Rules"
    The properties are:

    General: Enabled and Block the connection set
    Programs and services: All programs that meet the specified conditions
    Services are set to: Apply to all programs and services
    Protocols and Ports: ANY
    Scope: These IP Addresses: The clients IP I want to block

    However the remote XP client can still connect to my PC. What am I doing
    wrong?
