I feel foolish asking this as it's something I should know but I don't usually mess with the win7 firewall. I need to open some ports. Can someone help?

Just type firewall in the search engine, or Windows firewall.
Turn it off.
If you have other security programs, you'll need to do same with them if you are blocked.

I figured something out. I just added a firewall rule. Thanks for the response.

Yep, how it is done.
