I have a total wireless system at home including a
wireless printer server (netgear). However, if I have
the firewall enabled, I cannot use the printer server;
therefore, I have to disable the firewall in order for my
computer to communicate with the printer server. How,
and where, do I create an "exception" in order to leave
the firewall enabled all of the time?? Your help would
be greatly appreciated.

Go to your contriol panel, click on the Firewall icon. Click on the tab
"Exceptions" & the rest is history.;p Hope that helps...
