Note: This isn't a list of programs that STOP working... This is a list of programs that is by default, blocked by Windows firewall, so they may not work correctly until they're allowed to pass through the firewall.

This isn't a list of software that's going to break. :)

After you install Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), some programs may seem not to work. By default, Windows Firewall is enabled and blocks unsolicited connections to your computer. This article discusses how to make an exception and enable a program to run by adding it to the list of exceptions. This procedure permits the program to work as it did before the service pack was installed.

That means , if you are using ZoneAlarm (have Windows firewall turned off ) there should be no problem ?
