windows firewall?

[bartleby1]

I would also like to know because I seem to be having the same issues with most offers not crediting but I use Visa and IE. Even using a new email does not help?

I finally found it under start menu - 'control panel' - 'security center'. Not sure if it is the same on Vista though. Mine was turned on, so I turned it off and tried a fast crediting offer but I still didn't get credit so I guess that isn't the problem. New emails aren't helping for me either.

First thing I would do is update to IE 7, I really do think that helps with all windows updates.

What other firewall/virus are you using? Sometimes your internet provider provides free service/ At one point I had McAfee thru Verizon and the Norton that came with the laptop.

I probably should break down and switch to IE7. I usually don't like messing with my settings but since I'm having problems with credits anyway, I guess I have nothing to lose!

Other than the windows firewall, I'm using the free version of AVG. I haven't had a freebie offer credit since 12/18 which is very unusual for me so I've been trying to find out if something got changed on my computer. I did find some cookies that were being blocked which I have no idea how they got on that list so I thought that was the problem, but nope, not the problem either.

I also picked up a nasty trojan yesterday but the plus side of that is that I had to do some massive cleanup on my computer. Thankfully, with the help of a computer geek friend of mine, my system is now clean. I was really hoping this would help with credits, but apparently not.

I'm guessing at this point that it must be an IP addy thing since I can't find anything wrong with my settings.

I'll just have to stick with surveys for now. Hopefully greenfield will come back tomorrow and load lots more!
