Since Microsoft Security Essentials has recently upgraded this happened only once, so i think i was reporting this too soon. Anyway all is good now !

[VistaFirewallControl]

The curious thing is W7FC specifies the blocking reason (i.e. blocking zone/rule name) precisely.
Also W7FC shows all the blocking notifications regardless of the origin including notifications of WindowsFirewall and the peers.
If no a blocking reason is specified the rule is probably not of W7FC at all.

Hello everybody! I wanted to share to you that I encounter the same problem a few months ago and I found out that my antvirus was the problem. Then I had decided to change it and chose to use [ ...banned.... ] , since then I do not have problems with my PC anymore. Hope I could help!
