[Dx4win] TELNET connections

Perhaps someone who uses DXTELNET in conjunction with DX4WIN can help me.

All of a sudden my computer (Windows 7) stated giving pop up messages
indicating Windows firewall is blocking access to programs.
I would select "allow", but it does not seem to matter.
In DX4WIN, the DXTELNET hangs without connecting to any cluster.
In N1MM, the TELNET window also hangs.
The program JT-Alert launches, but then gets a "program not responding"
window and then shuts down.
I went into the firewall settings and enabled both private and public, for
virtually every program listed. Now N1MM works, but DX4WIN/DXTELNET and
JT-Alert still do not. I am reluctant to completely disable Windows
firewall, and haven't tried that yet, but wonder if something else is going
on?
