I dont know the model, but a friend of mine who I am trying to get into AH is having trouble connecting into the game....He has a (literally) brand new Hewlett Packard pavillion (series unknown) with no add ons...When we attempts to log into online mode the yellow box with firewall blablabla pops up....without myself personally being able 2 check out his comp and trouble shoot for him what could I tell him to try? what could be causing a firewall? is it necessarily a firewall? thanks guys

Try the Tech Support Forum. There's a sticky there on connections.

You don't need anti-virus since you can't get a virus playing AH.

Do not turn off firewall! (That is a lousy, irresponsible joke, loony1.)
