Re: [WIN7] Win7 Internet/Firewall problemsI'll need a bit of hand holding here. How do I make sure the Local Service is the logon account.....?
I jumped ahead and switched the Windows Firewall "log on" option to "Local System Account" instead of "This Account" and now when I switch back to "This Account" it says to enter a valid password |

For both the Firewall and Network Store Interface Service, on the logon tab, it should have "This account" selected and the account is "Local Service". Make sure to delete the password in both boxes. It should tell you that the Local Service account has been granted logon access. (This is the same as I had you do to the Firewall service in my 2nd post, btw) |

Ok, got it. What happens is when I clear the password and press OK, I do not get message indicating granted local access. And when I double click and check the log on tab, the password field is not empty anymore. |

You should be fine. It will show to have a password when you go back and look at it, but this is not really important. If you blanked it and hit Apply, you should see the message. You need to do this for both the service I mentioned.
Is the NSI Proxy Service driver showing that it is started? If so, try to start the Network Store Interface Service. |

NSI status is started.
Starting Network Store Interface Service results in:
Error 1079: The account specified for this service is different from the account specified for other services running in the same process. |

And you changed/verified that this service is using Local Service (note the space) for the logon?
Edit: if so, try this user instead: NT AUTHORITY\LocalService
Do the same for Base Filtering Engine (BFE) service.
Be sure to blank the password for each and then restart the services. |

This what I see for Network Store Interface Service logon on tab  I will try the other user instead Edit: Tried NT AUTHORITY\LocalService for both services, and got the same error code when restarting Network Store Interface. Also, when I go back into the logon tab for both services, it does not show NT AUTHORITY\LocalService but simply Local Service instead. |

They are the same user, just slightly different syntax to arrive at it. Try restarting the computer since we've made these changes and see what happens. |

So, I restarted the machine and retried starting those services and am still getting the same errors. Is this looking like a fresh install of Windows is required? |

you might try a repair/upgrade install first. |
|

Thanks for your trouble in this, I'll give that route a shot. |
