Basic firewall help

I am new to this firewall stuff. AOL tell you when you install AOL that you can download firewall from there site. What they fail to tell you is that it will block you connecting to the internet. They then tell you that idt is not there problem contact the supplier of the firewall.

Therefore can anyone tell me how to punch a hole in the firewall to let apps in and apps out. Maybe a flag setting that tells you that xyx.exe wants acces through the firewall.

Any Ideas? I am trying out Norton firewall
