Answer 1

1)Do u  have a third party security software installed? 
This could be due to that... What are the different virus scans you are already having.. there may be third party firewall or security product
which is interfering the windows firewall.. disable one by one your security scanners and try to up the windows firewall
(2)if you dont have such firewall product installed,  this could be due to malware or some other problem...
if you have an antivirus solution, update it's definitions, and do a full system scan.. 
If you dont have a antivirus solution or your one is not working, use one of the recommended tools (use only one of
them at a time)
