Maybe not... We have been here before, and if I remember correctly, the issue 
is not the firewall, but antivirus software messing with temp directories. (As 
I understand it, it goes "I see you have created a new directory, now let me 
put that in a safe place while I check it for malware. Oh, you were still using 
it? Too bad." Sort of like grabbing someone's new cup while they are trying to 
pour milk into it....) 

Check back issues of R-help for details of the earlier incidents.
