As the SP2 update re-enables it and causes nothing but problems with other firewall software (Like Norton Personal Firewall for example). Also check the services to see that it's not running as well. As turning it off in the control panel doesn't remove the service. You will have to do that manually. Damn MS firewall crap!! Wolf -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org)
