Windows Firewall

[mowh]

hi

i have just installed PES 2009 an i could log into the Gamenetwork of Konami without permitting PES to connect to the internet! So have looked it up and there is no cross for PES in the FireWall-settings.
How is this possible? Perhaps the Gamesettings which open some Ports (but ports have nothing to do with the firewall or?)

Sorry I have no idea what PES 2009 is.

Joan, I suggest PES 2009 means Pre Evolution Soccer 2009.
