Hi,

I've a software in winforms who needs to read data from a webservice in
Internet, but the mcafee antivirus or others, are asking for permissions to
the user to allow the connection to internet. This is a problem, because the
users of the software aren't computer engineers, they doesn't understand the
questions of the firewalls, and they usually block the software.

Is there any solution?

Thanks,

thanks. Mmmm but Im not sure if this is a gut solution, because there ara
hundreds (or more) firewall softwares in the market, and program the
configuration of all them... could be a little dificult

thanks!

Since most applications require admin privileges when installing, you
might be able to go ahead configure the firewall software to allow your
application to connect to the Internet during installation.

I would target the firewalls that integrate with the Windows Firewall
API.
