I can't see what this question has to do with Microsoft Word.

Since installing a new computer in July, Windows XP always fails to detect
a
firewall when the computer is turned on. This is notified by a balloon
which
is clicked to rectify after about 30 seconds. The alternative is simply
to
wait for about 30 seconds. Access to Internet Explorer is not possible
during
this time and although this is not a particular problem for me as a home
user
it is not something which I have experienced before. Is there an
underlying
problem which needs to be sorted out or do I have to live with it.
