I don't use Windows Firewall, but in general you can access these
things by right-clicking on the tray icon.

While SlimServer has in/out access on the relevant ports, the firewall
may be blocking incoming connections from the Squeezebox, incorrectly
believing it's a hostile machine trying to access your network.  If the
Squeezebox isn't included in what the firewall thinks is the LAN, it
would certainly be doing this.  This sort of information is in the logs
- something like "blocked traffic".  It's generally a timestamp with the
IP number and the port.  If you see repeated entries showing that the
Squeezebox's IP was blocked, there's your problem.

The Squeezebox is quite insistent and it will try to contact the server
every few seconds.  Your log will be full of these entries if indeed
this traffic is being blocked.

I don't know if Windows Firewall is that sophisticated, but that's what
to look for.

Michael Herger seems to think that this is a Windows 64-bit problem
though.  I sure hope not, because you'll be largely on your own to
solve that issue.
