  No! MSE does not include a firewall and you still need one.

• Security Center can't turn on Windows Firewall. Turn on manually.

• [Moved] Windows Firewall 8

  As the native firewall application in Windows is poor, I used 3 third-party solutions for many years. Now that I am on Windows 8, one big annoyance is that firewall Windows is activated at startup, even if to be OFF.  Whenever I reboot, I have to go and turn it off because it interferes with firewalls superior running manually.

  Firewall Windows makes my netBIOS visible to others, and also some service ports are marked as hidden, but not invisible. I don't want my system to be seen by others and the Windows Firewall is simply not enough good.

  How do I permanently disable it in Windows, except by checking the usual boxes?

  Update: everything is sorted now after I installed a 3rd party firewall and antivirus. I use two antivirus programs, which is ClamAV for Windows or ClamWin.  It is not a real-time scanner but it is excellent on the scheduled scans, analysis also send them.

  The other firewall + antivirus will not be disclosed here, but suffice it to say that all my service ports are now in full STEALTH mode, it has disabled Windows Firewall and I'm a happy man at the moment.

  This should be a year of learning for us all, as it is commonly accepted that the Windows Firewall is good enough. Turned out to be incorrect.

• If you install Oracle 11 g XE with active windows firewall APEX is dead

  My first installation of Oracle 11g XE was carried out with the active windows firewall.
  The database configuration was completed in bad condition because post install scripts did not stand because port 1521 has been locked.
  You got the "Get Started" link did not stand ok and browser got an error page.
  
  Allways install Oracle database with the non-active windows firewall.
  
  You can read in the documentation, installation...
  
  2.1.2 the Windows Firewall configuration
  
  If you plan to install Oracle Database XE on a computer running the Windows Firewall, which was introduced in Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1, and then connect from another computer, verify that the firewall has not been configured to block all communication between the following inbound ports. These ports are the default ports that users Oracle Database XE.
  
  1521: oracle database listener
  2030: oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server
  8080: Transaction oracle HTTP Server
  
  but that apply to connect from another computer at your facility, not the installation process.
  I think that the documentation must contain "disable windows firewall before you try to install.

  Allways install Oracle database with the non-active windows firewall.

  Or add the listener and apex port numbers to the list of exceptions.

• Windows Firewall is disabled

  I had ZoneAlarm firewall installed on my computer for a while, the Windows Firewall is disabled. When I started my computer today, there was a red security alert icon in the lower right screen telling me Windows Firewall is disabled. As far as I know it is been extinguished since the ZoneAlarm has been installed. I rebooted the computer and the alert was still there. Windows Security Center indicates that the Windows Firewall, it does not show the ZoneAlarm. The ZoneAlarm is on and functioning normally, I confirmed in the Task Manager. I ran my anti-virus and spybot programs and nothing turned up. Why am I suddenly on the firewall alerts Windows is disabled? Should I be concerned?

  Hello

  Here's what I use and recommend:

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
  Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
  a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  I hope this helps.

• Disabled all incoming in the Windows Firewall, internet connections still work

  I have disabled all inbound connections in windows firewall, but not noticed any problem with my internet connection. Weird how? For example, I let Internet Explore establish outbound connections, but do not allow for it or any other service/program to receive incoming connections. But Internet Explorer still gets responses from the servers on the internet when the requesting State pages and I also get a response from the DNS server of my ISP when IE tries to resolve ips domains. Weird. I misunderstood the meaning of incoming connections or there is a huge security hole in windows firewall.

  Hi Semjon,

  This setting blocks all unsolicited attempts to connect to your computer. Use this setting when you need maximum protection for your computer, for example when you connect to a public network in a hotel or airport, or when a computer worm spreads on the Internet. With this setting, you are not notified when Windows Firewall blocks programs, and programs on the Exceptions list are ignored.

  When you select block all incoming connections, you can still view most Web pages, send and receive electronic mail and send and receive instant messages.

  For more information please visit the link below.

• Windows Security Center is disabled and there is that no Service security not listed under services. Also, the Windows Firewall does not work.

  I have a security alert window in the center of the Action, which shows me that the Security Center Service is disabled. When I try to turn it on by clicking the Activate button now, I get the message: could not start the Service Windows Security Center without any error code. When I start my program I see no registration for the Security Service in services.msc. I use Windows 7 Ultimate SP1. I tried to scan with Microsoft Security Essentials, which is updated. There is no threat detected. For which I am sure that I use it for some time now about a year and a half. I got no software or hardware change recently. Also, I'm not able to update my Windows Firewall settings. When I try to change the settings there is a message: Firewall Windows cannot change some of your settings. Error code 0 x 80070424. Please help as I have tried to go well as each answer or the Forum but without success. What is a bug MSE or a real problem.

  When you have imported the registry key, you probably do not change the permissions on the registry keys.

  Reach

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\BFE

  Right click on it -permissions

  Click ADD and type

  Everyone, and then click ok

  Now click on all

  Below, you have the permission for users

  Select full control, and then click ok

  DO the same for the "reg" MPSSVC so key which also returns access denied.

  Make sure also canceled to start service to invite you, he should be admin/elevated command prompt.

  Also, you may need a system restart after changing the permissions on the registry key.

  I hope this helps.
