ASP.NET not working ? Flame you firewall !

Some time ago I blogged how I got my broken asp.net working again. Which turned out to be a popular problem. My solution did not work for everybody, but the post became a place to discuss alternative solutions. The post should become a wiki, for the moment I'll recap a pattern (best described here):

ASP.NET does not work well with (some) software firewalls. My XP sp1 is no problem, according to several sources ZoneAlarm is. If yor asp.net does not work and you do have a firewall try disabling the latter.

I was missing your thread... very interesting, I've discovered the same problem yesterday on my laptop after ZoneAlarm installation. I'll try to check your post, I think it could be useful. Thanks!

Disabling your firewall is the worst thing you can do. Hello hackers, come right in! A much better solution is to find a firewall that works with your configuration and needs. I too am having problems with Zonealarm and my web development projects (ASP, ASp.NET, web services). But I wouldn't disable my firewall, instead I'll look for another firewall that works with .NET .

It's perhaps not formulated that well. Disable the zonnet firewall AND get yourself a proper one, like sp2.
