A:Configuring the Windows XP Firewall
Dynamic addresses can change at any moment, making it harder for firewalls to keep track of. If you need to use a firewall, we suggest that you configure your UBox to use a static IP address. Also, if your firewall is currently on, you will not be able to see the UBox. Turn off the firewall to allow your computer to communicate temporarily with the UBox.
