I use Commodo and simply temporarily changed the Firewall Security Level to Disabled and restarted Calibre.

In theory, yes, but for some reason it doesn't work. For example, Calibre can access the Internet to get metadata, but drag and drop still doesn't work.
Since I don't have drag and drop problems with other programs, I strongly suspect that there's something wrong with Calibre's Windows drag & drop code.
