Can not find Windows Firewall/ICS under Manage - Services

Posted: 02-26-2007, 06:31 PM
I am having issues trying to share files / folders and a printer on a machine
via a wireless network. I suspect a firewall issue could be a play. When I
go to the Windows Security Center and select Firewall, I get the error 'Due
to anunidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall settings.'

Although it says my firewall is "Off", i can not access it, and am skeptical
about this. It seems as if there is a high degree of funk about this.

I have gone the "My Computer" = Manage, Services & Applications, Services"
route and do not see "Windows Firewall - ICS" anywhere,

I am running McAfee and don;t seem to be able to change anything there either.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
