Windows Firewall Question

I'm using a 3rd party firewall program. In Administrative Tools---Services
it shows Windows Firewall status as Started. But, in Security Center it
shows my 3rd
party firewall being On but Windows Firewall being. Off.
Why would one show Windows Firewall as Started and another show it as Off???

You can stop now. Wait for an answer to either this thread or the
other one you started less than an hour earlier.

I waited for a hour but I didn't see my post even though it was
in the 'Sent Items.'
I wouldn't have posted a second damn time if I knew for
sure.

Anything else???

Not so much today, but in the past some nntp servers only propagated
(pulled) posts once a day. This is not like a chat room where nearly
instantaneous communication can be expected.

If you use a web to usenet gateway, additional delays can be affecting
you too.

No. You used two different, but similar, subjects.

You've missed the point. He was referring to why he couldn't see his
original post. His news reader is configured to thread messages by the
actual subject, rather than by message ID and there was already a thread
titled Windows Firewall so it got threaded there in his news reader while
he was expecting to see a new thread.
