Lemmens Peter Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Hi, I had the same problem and solved it by executing a script that 1. Disable the firewall-service (so it won't start again when rebooting the computer) 2. Stop the firewall-service The following script does the trick #NoTrayIcon Opt("TrayMenuMode",1) RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess", "Start", "REG_DWORD", "4") RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'net stop "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)"', "", @SW_HIDE) But you need to run it as an administrator on the computer itself (bummer...) So You create a script (exe) of the code above. Lets call it 'Disable_And_Stop_Firewall.exe' And need to create a new script (exe) that unpacks this 'Disable_And_Stop_Firewall.exe' and launch it as the administrator. The following script does this. #NoTrayIcon Opt("TrayMenuMode",1) FileInstall(".\Disable_And_Stop_Firewall.exe", ".\Disable_And_Stop_FW.exe", 1) Sleep(100) If RunAsWait("administrator", @computername, "administratorpasswordofthecomputer", 0, ".\Disable_And_Stop_FW.exe") = 0 and @error <> 0 Then Sleep(100) Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & $Command, @ScriptDir & "\", @SW_HIDE) EndIf Sleep(100) FileDelete(".\Disable_And_Stop_FW.exe") Sleep(100) I hope this will help, Best regards, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
