Examples of 5050

An attempt to programmatically disable the Windows Firewall using a call to INetFwProfile.FirewallEnabled(FALSE) interface was rejected because this API is not supported on Windows Vista. This has most likely occurred due to a program which is incompatible with Windows Vista. Please contact the program's manufacturer to make sure you have a Windows Vista compatible program version.
