Serious firewall Issue

Yes, I have posted in the Firewall group without success. This seems to be
serious enough to post here since there are more folks reading and helpin'

I have no other firewall but the Windows Firewall in a Vista Business
Thinkpad T60p.

I get the following error in Event Viewer:

Windows Firewall was unable to notify the user that it blocked an
application from accepting incoming connections on the network.

Error Code: 2


I have the Notify option set to ON in Vista . Since this is a Vista product
(Firewall) interacting with a Vista product (Vista Business) doesn't anyone
who knows Vista have a clue what Error Code 2 refers to?? You'd think the
folks at MS might be curious since it involves their software exclusively.
Is there an Error Code listing anywhere that I might go to and find Code 2?

Any and all suggestions appreciated.

Does your virus protect also have a firewall ? They could be clashing, turn
the Vista one off.
