Yes, it's available. Go into MY NETWORK PLACES, then select VIEW NETWORK 
CONNECTIONS on the left-hand side. Then right-click on the connection in 
question and select PROPERTIES. Go to the advanced tab and place a check mark 
in the INTERNET CONNECTION FIREWALL box. Just keep in mind that its a very 
basic firewall, but does do the job for most cases... except the heavy hitters 
trying to hack your system. And, it only protects against incoming, not 
outgoing, as ZA does.
