[Bluej-discuss] Conflicts with firewall and BlueJ

[David Cooper]

Hi everyone,

 

I have recently downloaded and installed Java SDK and BlueJ as instructed,
but when I try to run BlueJ, the opening window shows the title bar, but no
menus.

By clicking in the top left hand corner I can modify the window size and
cause more of the window to become visible, although I still cannot interact
with any of the menus or buttons.

 

When I disabled my firewall (Zone Alarm 6) [with my PC disconnected from the
wireless network for security] and reopened BlueJ everything seems to work
fine.

I thought I'd try to be clever (Foolish me!) and enable the Windows firewall
instead - but this also stopped BlueJ working as well.

 

Obviously I cannot work without an active firewall, but I also want to use
BlueJ at the same time, so can anyone suggest a suitable way to rectifying
this problem?

 

Thanks :-)

 

David
