found most people said you could not configure the windows firewall to work with file sharing programs or such as an ftp. This is incorrect, I entered in the proper settings to the firewall to see if i could allow an ftp or such. It worked just fine if you know how to enter port settings.

I just explained that, and it can be done with pre-sp2 firewall, I know windows sp2 firewall does it automattically to unblock and allow programs to accept connections on incoming ports automattically. However this wasn't the case with pre-sp2 firewall which I have noticed some users complaining of this so i tried it.
