I think they won't change this... the temporary file has its own meanings... although they never published them (maybe for commercial/security reasons).
Possibly - if they don't change it they definetly need to officially document it
Correction on my previous post "the firewall runs under svchost" should obviously have been "Windows Update runs under svchost".
I've read the various "slaggings" about MSs two-way FW in Vista and I only actually have one real complaint with it -which is more geared around the fact they probably just didn't have time to implement it within the Vista release timeframe.
The FW (as in XP/SP2) prompts when InBound access is required by Apps/Progs and gives you some idea as to
what that App is.
For OB access - it doesn't give you a darned thing - only the blocks in the FW logs give you any indication where to start.
Users will have no choice but to consult documentation for the Apps in question - which is exactly what MS want - i.e. that's nothing to do with us.
I can imagine some Corps having monumental issues with this and there will be *ALOT* of work required to keep existing Infrastructures up and running.
That said, the FW does what it is documented to do - it just needs more development to be up to competing with third party firewalls etc... which is more than a few years away yet.
