the thing is in Kazaa MD there is a firewall tab in the options...
it says
Use SOCKS5 Proxy Server? (check box)

Incoming Ports:
USe Port.... for incoming connections...

You don't have to fill anything into those fields,unless you're using a proxy
All i know is that if you want your firewall to allow all incoming and outgoing traffic through kazaa (or any other app) you'll have to configure your firewall and not kazaa itself.
Somebody will come in here and will tell you exactly what to do with it.
I can't help you any further with it because i never used XP firewall.
Using sygate firewall pro only takes one click to configure it the right way.
If you want some info on sygate Click Here!.
The free version of the firewall is good,pro is better...and i might be able to help you out getting it registered.
hmm...asspie

I do have an anwser for this. I think it might just help you out.
But...first see if you have a program called "KaZuperNodes" (you might have changed your supernode and you can't connect because of that.) If you do, open that program and click the button in the right hand corner (bottom of window) and see if that helps.
If you go to start and see a thing that says "connect to" go to that and click on "Show all Connections" then find the active connection, it will probally be the only icon, but if you have multiply ones look for the one that is a lite up blue color.
If it is really firewalled it should say something like Enabled, Firewalled...right clicking on it will allow you to scroll down and click proporties. You should then see 3 tabs, the last tab should be advanced. Click this tab and you should see a checked check box that says something like "Protect my computer and network..."
In the button right there is a settings button, click that and you should have to wait for like a second while it pulls up a list of services (ftp, html all that junk) scroll to the bottom and see if there are any kazaa things already there, just not checked. Checking them may fix the problem or you might just have to change the port number to the one kazaa uses in the firewall settings. Hope this gave you some idea. Good luck to you.
