Cannot start Windows Live Mesh - advanced firewall problem

Hi
I cannot start Windows Live Mesh on Win7 pc with advanced firewall set to block all outgoing connections.
I did allow 2 services (wlidsvc and wlcrasvc) and 3 programs (wlcomm, moe, wlsync ) to go out on all ports and protocols, and inbound ports are opened by installation itself (though there were no questions asked!).
At start, error is shown that computer must be connected to Internet and that after first signup I can use it offline. Of course, I'm online, and I find it unacceptable to allow all programs/services to go online in order to have Windows Live Mesh working :/
Just for info, Windows update services and remote desktop are working normally. Microsoft Security Essentials is used as antivirus. No other firewall avir is used.
So the real question is: to which other service/program i have to grant rights to go online?
Best regards and thank you for the info, Ivan

Since you are referring to Windows Live Mesh, not Live Mesh - www.mesh.com, you are in the wrong forum. Yes, the naming convention is confusing, though I like that they kept the Mesh name alive for the upgrade to Live Sync (formerly FolderShare).
For discussion of the new Windows Live Mesh (formerly Sync), (as well as the released Live Sync version) go here:

Hi, Ivan - I'm sorry for the confusion, too. :-) And it isn't your fault, no need to apologize. The naming of the Live Sync upgrade to Windows Live Mesh while Live Mesh is left active through the end of March with two distinct forums is indeed confusing to many.Good luck.
