I am getting an error message in Windows firewall.
In windows firewall bellow windows firewall is helping to protect your
computer?

inbound connections that do not have an exception - are blocked.
is this the reason I cannot ping my computer from itself or any other
computer?
Can someone help.
 
Yes. Inbound ping is blocked by default by the firewall.

What are you trying to achieve?

RE: Windows firewall. inbound connections that do not have an exce

Hi Jesper. Thank you for your reply. I was trying to ping this computer and
others but only getting through on two of the four computers on my network. I
was also getting an error message from the windows firewall. I think it is ok
though. I have installed Microsoft windows live one care. and everything is
ok.
