Windows 7 - Security or firewall settings might be blocking the connection

Windows 7 Unable to browse Internet / Windows 7 Automatic Updates are disabled

If you have upgraded from XP/Vista and getting the following error, it might be due to your Antivirus firewall. Disable the firewall temporarily and try. If that doesn't work out then try to uninstall and re-install the Win7 version of your antivirus program



The problem occurs with Windows 7 - ESET antivirus and Windows 7 - Norton Internet security.

I tried uninstalling the AV and then re-install - it worked out!
