Microsoft Firewall turns itself off. I reset it to be on without exceptions but it still turns itself off. What's going on?

If you have an antivirus software,keep an eye on it as most antiviruses come with a Firewall Protection.
The upcoming Internet Explorer for Windows 8.1 will have a Pre-Installed Firewall.

But if there is no antivirus and firewall is still turned off,you need to seek for Windows XP security updates from the Microsoft website.
That will fix your problem.
