Whenever I try to play some games online it wont let me connect because some firewall is blocking me from playing.I have Zone Alarm but I realize that it was AOL's Firewall that is blocking me.I use to be able to find it and turn it off but now whenever I turn on my computer it just comes up and says "firewall turned on".I cant find the program nowhere.

Hello.

I just need a little bit of clarification over here. You said:

but now whenever I turn on my computer it just comes up and says "firewall turned on"

So what exactly is the "it" here? Is it the Windows Security Center? Or a message from AOL?

Sean970

Yeah its the message from aol.And all the other messages come on too like "virus protection turned on".

Hi there sean and welcome to PCHF

This may help you, Taken from aol help channels:

Disable Your Firewall in the AOL Safety and Security Center Software

To disable your firewall in the AOL Safety and Security Center software:
1. Access the AOL Firewall software. If the AOL Firewall software has not been disabled, on the right side of the AOL Safety and Security Center window, you will see a message indicating that your firewall is on.
2. Click the Turn Off link. A message window will be displayed, alerting you that your firewall has been disabled.
3. Click the OK button.
Note: To turn your firewall back on, click the Turn On link, then click the OK button.
