haveing trouble setting up my SQL.

I turned off zone alarm but still was blocked.
How do you know it is blocked? Have you made sure the Windows Firewall is turned off also? What kind of Internet connection do you have... router, cable modem, phone line etc...?
when you initally set it up i get passed the stage where i create a user name and password and then when it tries to fiish it tells me the port was blocked, and to check my firewall.
Well i turned Zonealarm off and win XP firewall is truned off but still no dice
i have a wireless router but this PC is connected to to via a cable
Do you know what port you are using and what port is expected on the other side?
Use NETSTAT -ANO while the connection is open, and you'll see what ports are in use at the time.
