Click on....
Start>Controll Panel> (if its on Cassic View click.... Windows Firewall) > a window show pop-up so at the top tab look for Exceptions and click it> at bottom click the button "Add Program" or "Add Port (if u know the port which is 6112 i dont quite remember)> then the results according to the website it should work but i never for me so u can try if ya want =] u should get the i dea though
