Vista Firewall works as a wall between the computer and the www world, like a wall needs to have a passage through a door, same way, it needs to have let some data get in and out by making changes in Computer security. There are some settings which are made by the operating system automatically and there are some settings which need to be done manually.
Manual exception for a program –
For that you need to go control panel (go to start and then click on control panel), there is a link called “Allow a program through windows firewall”. Make sure that you are on general tab, and check the option” On (recommended)” is selected. If not so then enable it, this action will enable the firewall.
Then move on to the exceptions tab at the top. To add a program click on the add program which is near the bottom. Then a list of programs will be displayed, locate the program, highlight it and click ok. Make sure that you have selected the programs and then click ok.
