How can I disable SP2 fire wall?

[YanBooth]

I got SP2 today (against my will, but some programs require it to work) and I can't find out how to disable the firewall that comes with it, please help!

www.oyah.net has great operating system simulators, click on the I-sims link on the top menu, and check it out.

It has simulators for operating systems. So, for example, if you are not sure you want to navigate through your system to do something on your own, or are unsure of how to do something, just click on your os version, and try it on theirs .. it shows windows defaults and how to turn options on/off.

Is another great site for software simulation. It like oyah, but better, faster, and with newer content. I am always use it in my work.
