It could be possible for the firewall to prevent installation being as
it is seeing a "new" network. You shouldn't have to uninstall it, just
disable it while you are installing the other stuff. When you turn it
back on or reinstall it, then it will see what is going on and either
ask you if it is ok, or you will have to manually allow it. Depends on
the firewall.
