I installed the latest free CIS on Win 7 build 7127 but the Tray icon has the red circle with diagonal line and when I open CIS there's a sentence on the bottom of the window that says "the Network Firewall is not functioning properly". Does anyone have a solution? Thanks.

Do you have any other security programs installed? Which ones? Which one(s) are running in the background? What happens when you disable them?

CIS is working here without a glitch at Win 7 RC (7100). Did you do an upgrade or clean install of Win 7 (7127)?

Actually, the app needs to be installed as Admin, or the firewall usually won't install (running on Win7 RC1 x64).

Is that for the 7264 build? That's an interim build; you never know what things break in those snapshot builds. There have been a few build in the 71 or 70 series that had problems with CIS as well with other programs. Using these builds is for one's own risk of course....

You have a leaked RTM version? Glad to see CIS works on that..... Angel
