_Aes_Sedai_ Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 I have been lurking in here for about three weeks or so because I have had the same problem that most people here have. My ports would not forward no matter what I did.I finally clicked the logger tab...... It said that it could not access window's firewall. I had previously disabled all the services that contribute and or run window's firewall. It was a simple matter of enabling "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)", and my ports were no longer blocked. I can't say I understand why disabling the firewall would block my ports, but hey maybe it will work for you too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Aes_Sedai_ Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 1 Open Utorrent and start a torrent2 Check the logger tab after a few minutes, If it says "[2008-08-01 17:45:41] Error opening Windows firewall: 0x80070005 Access is denied" or something similar then this may be your problem.3 follow this path"control panel > administrative tools > services4 find "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)". It is in Alphabetical order by default, so it shouldn't be hard.5 Double click on "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)"6 You will find yourself with a new screen. In the general tab of that screen make sure that "Startup" is set to "Automatic" 7 Move to the "Log On" tab and make sure it is set to "Enabled" under the "Hardware Profiles" section.8 Go back to the general tab, and click "start" If you are not able to click start, then the process is already running, and this was not your problem.
