ok here is my puzzle on my laptop running windows xp (32 bit) service pack 3 calibre in it's newest version 0.7.40 works like a charm just as it always has.
on my desktop windows xp 64 bit version service pack 3 it runs just fine but will not fetch metadata. I have worked with it on the desktop and the only way I can get it to work is to disable windows firewall (not an option) so I know that there is a problem with windows firewall but I have no clue what to do about it, I tried resetting the firewall to the defaults still no help the thing that puzzles me most is that it used to work just fine. I would be willing to change firewalls or what ever it takes to fix this
