I quote Bruce Chambers--a regular contributor he

There are two interfaces for Vistas built-in firewall:

1) A simplified one accessed through the Control Panel that is the only
one most people see. To further supplement this view, Sphinx's Vista
Firewall Control http://sphinx-soft.com/Vista/) is a piece of freeware
that makes the Vista Firewall much more useful to the average user.

2) And the more advanced "Windows Firewall with Advanced Security
(WF.msc), accessed via the Start Menu's Administrative Tools folder, for
the experienced user who wants more granular control

Thanks for the two links via Control Panel.

Now I must search for a tutorial on the meanings of the allowed and
blocked.

I noted that my printer seems to have many inward allowed optiions. I
think it would stop working if these were not allowed.

Best wishes
