As you may have read, Microsoft has decided to enable their Internet
Connection Firewall by default on the forthcoming Windows XP Service Pack 2.
ICF is supposed to be incompatible with SecuRemote and SecureClient.

We have been installing the new R55 version of SecureClient and I just
modified a wireless connection on an XP Pro laptop. WHen I tried to start
SecureClient by Connect Mode, up popped a dialog box that reads:

"SecureClient has detected that Internet Connection Firewall (ICF) is
enabled for at least one of your network connections.

ICF may interfere with SecureClient connecting in Office Mode. Click Ignore
to ignore this warning and connect. Click Disable to disable ICF for all
network connections now."

I clicked Disable and got a warning titled "Internet Sharing Configuration"
warning me that the change was to be made.
