I using Microsoft Managed AddIn Framework, to run my addin as a separate process.
It creates a process called "AddInProcess32.exe" from my plugin dll.
The plugin should able to open a port, so i should able to add it to fire wall exception application. But i can not do this.
How can i add my MAF process to fire wall exception in windows 7?

Warning: Since
AddInProcess32.exe
can be used by different applications, it may not be safe to add it to Windows Firewall. Just a warning. At least you may try to limit its permissions.
