  1. Use service mode (server) on XP
  2. Start server/client as guided by GUI
  3. See that no connect connects
  4. Add firewall exception for synergys
  5. See that client now connects after clicking "Apply"

Appears to affect XP install, but may also affect Vista/win7.

I've run into this issue also.

Perhaps there should be some automated firewall exceptions in the installer?
