Well , after my initial thread regarding a Firewall.

I finally decided to bite the bullet and give this nVidia one ago.
Seems I am one of the lucky few that wasn't getting any major problems, but one thing I have noticed.... although it's all enabled.....
It never prompts upon opening programs to allow or deny access.
Has anyone come across this before?

Very odd,

I've ran across this issue before. Its a main reason why I don't use it :-/

Have you tried resetting the firewall defaults?

Yeah, tried that.
Using latest nForce drivers.
Such a shame, everything else actually seems to work on it, even Active Armour.

Is there any means of contacting nVidia for support direct?
Just seems a shame to have what seems to be a working solution that is hindered by such a small issue.
I wasn't getting the problems most people report, just that one small thing.
Wonder what causes it. Very odd!

Well I remember fixing it once before but I don't remember how :-/ All I know is that I made sure the proper services were running and then configured some setting(s) via the web interface.

So it was something within the settings somewhere that fixed it?

Hmm, trying to think what services that might be disabled to stop it from working.
