Karnage 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2005 I just got Windows XP and I just wanted to know, should I turn on Windows firewall if I already have a router? Several programs such as Azureus and Limewire aren't cooperating even after I unblock them and I just wanted to know if that is why that happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
