Default Vista - firewall affected DSL speed

I just got a new Vista computer and I found that my DSL speed was
abnormally slow. I called the ISP and they said to turn off the
firewall. This fixed it.

I wasn't aware a firewall could affect your modem speed so much. The
XP firewall had never done that.



It doesn't..
