In a game of WarCraft 3, I tried to make a game and invite a friend to it. He couldn't join me, there was something with a firewall blocking it.
Now we know it wasn't his firewall.
I am able to join HIM.

So I can't act as a server. My firewall blocks that.

The problem is: I am not aware of any firewall on my computer.

I have PC-cillin, but I disabled the firewall.
What other program has a built-in firewall??

I have Windows XP, does that have a firewall?? How can I deactivate it???

Thanks!!
