Yes,

In the run box on the start menue type services.msc. Find Widows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing, click on it and change the start up type to disabled. You can stop the service then, or reboot.

there was some talk about completely disabling the thing...

try this

within a vb script file called: enumconnection

set WMI = GetObject("WinMgmts:\root\Microsoft\HomeNet")
set objs = WMI.InstancesOf("HNet_ConnectionProperties")
for each obj in objs
__________<contd...>

That script looks like overkill to me, and I believe it was discussed in the context of operating a server. I have run a bunch of different firewalls with no apparent conflicts just having the Windoze firewall service turned off.
