You could just reinstall windows and reformat your hard drive. You would get tons of space and no firewalls!

Firewalls protect you from anything malicious entering your computer. If you are having problems with a specific program you need to figure out what port that the program uses and open it within the firewall.

As well as reformatting and reinstalling Windows, there is Windows Firewall installed by default. You can turn it off but it will still be there. Reinstalling would be unnecessary.

If your looking to clean up temp files and things of that sort, I'd have to recommend a program called ccleaner. Works awesome and very is light.

I would give it a try.

good luck. :]

Like I said, you need to configure your firewall. A firewall isn't there to piss you off, its there to protect you.

If it bugs you that much, why don't you try turning it off? When its turned off, do things work normally or the same. Do a little reading and try to understand how firewalls work.

What exactly are you trying to download? What firewall(s) are installed?
Give us more info and maybe we can help.
