If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, you need to add bitcoin.exe to its |

depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization |

The software automatically finds other nodes to connect to. You can |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
enable Universal Plug and Play using a menu entry or set your firewall |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
incoming connections. Bitcoin works without incoming connections, |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
but allowing incoming connections helps the Bitcoin network. |
