Well, here we go:

1. For the greyed out buttoms, are you sure you're logged as an administrator? Please, go Start Menu > Control Panel > User accounts and post a screenshot here. Thanks.

2. Can you post a screenshot of your Windows Security Center with all Firewall settings opened options (click on the down arrow to show the firewall info)? Start Menu > Control Panel > Security Center.

Zeb, if you log as Tracy you're the administrator.
So, there is a problem because WSC is not detecting 'all' the firewalls on your computer.
Did you install any in the past? Like Norton Internet Suite or McAfee Suites... or any other firewall, like ZoneAlarm?

Use windows explorer and navigate to that folder.
C:\ drive
Windows folder
System32 sub folder
Wbem sub folder
Repository.
