A bit OT, but which firewall do you use? Try disabling your regular firewall, and turning on Windows XP / Vista built-in firewall for the duration of DW online session, just designate DW.exe as an exception in a firewall's exceptions list. You will need Windows XP SP 2, SP 3, or Vista for Windows firewall.
Windows firewall is pretty basic, but it should be just fine for the online session duration, it won't filter any outgoing traffic, but it will filter incoming traffic. |
Hmm will I be putting my PC at risk. I mean windows firewall is pretty basic imo. I'm using COMODO internet security package. really happy with it. Though it may cause me some nuisances like when installing or executing new application I would recommend it to anyone.
Plus sometimes I run snort IDS in the background too. Yea I'm neurotic...lol.
Edit: Yea I finally get DW working with my firewall up. A change of defense+ setting.
Thanks Bobby.
