Hi Shannon, when you are using a router with a firewall, or at least this is
how my router works. You aren't installing anything, or you shouldn't have
to. Once you plug your router in, and get the power going, there are
settings you adjust for your firewall. Usually this is a web based interface
that you deal with to make your setting adjustments.

I know you guys probably think I am totally out in left field, but really I
am not. The firewall was installed automatically I think when I installed
MSN for my internet. Where in the installation does it give me a choice to
let it through the firewall, not sure I saw that. Thanks for being so
patient and for all the help.

Hi Shannon, I ran into the exact same problem when I installed thisprogramfor thee first time. I didn't know what I was so I somehow told it know,notto let the program in, and i got same the message that you did. Iunstalledmaybethe program, and started from scratch, but this time making to allow the program through my firewall. It worked, and the test went smoothly. Soyou could uninstall the program from add/remove, and try reinstalling itto
again. Did you recently buy this router? Do you remember setting up your
router and firewall?
