  In a previous post: http://forums.microsoft.com/windowsonecare/ShowPost.aspx?siteid=2&postid=2787103 someone gave the following link to the firewall repair file.

   

  http://download.microsoft.com/download/1/4/0/1400dde8-8f5a-4046-90a1-f58278f084e6/OneCareFirewallRepair.exe

   

  I downloaded that file, ran it and restarted my computer a couple of times and it wouldn't work then either.  But when I turned off my computer for the night and then booted the following morning, it was working properly again.  It has been working great all day today.

  When I try to contact the above link or download the repair to turn on Firewall, I get a message that says I must have "administrator permission."  Nothing works.  I can't turn the Firewall back on.

  Download the tool and save it to your desktop.

  I assume you are using Vista.

  Right click on the downloaded and saved tool and select "run as administrator."

  Provide your administrator credentials if prompted.

  The tool will run.

  If it fails to fix the problem, please contact support.
