Can someone help? I'm running XP home SP2 and when I try to access
Windows Firewall, I get the following message:

Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows
Firewall settings.

I've been running SP2 for quite some time. At one time I was able to
check my firewall settings, but don't know how long it's not been
working.

TIA
jst

1. Make sure the computer is clean:

2. If the computer is clean, do:

"Due to an unidentified problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall
settings" error, try:
Start>Run regsvr32 hnetcfg.dll [enter]

I do have the same problem:while opening the Windows Firewall,i received the
same error message,and i use the WindowsXP SP2....
I tried the "Start>Run regsvr32 hnetcfg.dll [enter] " but nothing
changed;problem still exist...
This problem started while my system was infected with CWS virus;i cleaned
it with all its registry,but i realised that my Norton AntiVirus stopped
responding (i'm even unable to reinstall it :got error message with
installation failed),plus the above error related to Windows Firewall....
Any help plzzzzzzz?????
