Windows Firewall Nonexistant


Recommended Posts

I just recently installed Windows XP Home Edition on my new computer, using

the same disk as I used on the old comp. Trouble is, for some reason Windows

firewall doesn't show up under Control Panel on the new comp. I switched to

classic view AND tried searching for the file, hidden folders and all. Still

nothing. For some reason Windows Firewall is nonexistant on my new rig. Any

ideas?

RE: Windows Firewall Nonexistant

 

Windows Firewall was first released as a component of Windows XP SP2. Do you

have SP2?

Sorry, that's not correct. It was introduced with SP1.
