I don't know whether this is the gotcha you are talking about. Running
setup and choosing no firewall will turn off the firewall. However, id
you run setup again the firewall will seem to be indicating it is at
the high level. That is a artifact of the program setup runs. In
actual fact I think that unless you explicitly then say you want the
high level of firewall the firewall will be off.--
