Firewall Greyed out in SBS Environment

Yet again a case where SBS trys to think for you. Like me, you probably checked the default domain policy and found nothing under firewall and started to scratch your head.

Go here:

You can edit the policy and get your firewall settings for your users back..or simply delete the GPO and work in the default policy as normal.
