    I am trying to use one of the music sites for uploading songs etc to ipod (MP3 Rocket) but recently my internet connection for this site says that it is blocked by the firewall in place (NTL is internet connection)
    I have tried to manually open a port in internet connection firewall ( from Microsoft windows site) but still isnt connecting
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks

    Windows ICF does not block or monitor outbound traffic.

    I used the instructions per the Microsoft website to open a port to allow the Rocket access thats all, it had nothing to do with Microsoft !!

    My point was Microsoft's ICF (Which is a microsoft product which has something to do with microsoft) doesn't _block_ or _monitor_ OUNTBOUND traffic.

    So you don't start troubleshooting local client OUTBOUND issues.
