Yes, a firewall WILL interfere with Pegasus's ability to connect with PHP's server. It's too bad that TrendMicro doesn't have a popup that asks you if it's OK to connect. This feature seems to be lacking in many firewalls. It's an example of poorly written software in my humble opinion.

By the way, there's a free firewall that's always been very highly rated called ZoneAlarm. It DOES give you the option to allow a connection or not (without turning it off).
