re: RSS blocked by firewall

What program are you using to receive it? Did you look into the specifications of what port and protocol is used, and allow that through your firewall?

As Sicarie says, you will need to look at your firewall manual and configure it to let in what you need. We wouldn't have the information required to give anything more specific.
