I am trying to enable my firewall on my new MSN
connection. However, when I click on properties, my
computer does nothing. Does anyone know if this is a
problem with MSN? Is the firewall already enabled, or is
there a way I can get around this block?

The MSN software creates a non-standard network connection that
doesn't allow you to access its properties. That's a design decision
by MSN. I recommend contacting MSN for more information.
