I have been recently having an annoying problem with the firewall on Vista,
everytime I trun on my computer, I have to go in and enable the firewall.
everytime, how do I keep it constanly on?

Are you running any third party firewalls; Norton Security, Microsoft
Onecare? They turn off the Windows Firewall to replace it with their own.

OneCare turns off Windows Firewall. I'd use OneCare's firewall since you
already have it and its easier, instead of having them always conflicting
with each other.
