Hello,

How do I fix my security settings so I can use a web application?

You have to be a member of weight watchers to use the app I am using. And It worked yesterday before updates/patches were applied to my PC. Now... it doesn't work. It comes from a web page that has a pop up window. The name of it is called "etools".

Hi,

you will have to allow for exception in the firewall settings.

go to control panel > windows firewall > exceptions

check the software you want and if you cannoit find it, click on Add programs
