## Is your computer behind a firewall/proxy?

Certain jEdit features that make HTTP connections (plugin manager's automated plugin installation and update, latest version check, loading files from remote servers) will not function from behind a firewall unless you configure the firewall settings. If you have a direct connection to the Internet, you may skip this step by clicking Next.

To configure firewall settings, click the button below. If you chose not to install the firewall plugin when installing jEdit, or you are not running Java 2, the button will be disabled and firewall functionality will not be available.

You may change firewall settings at any other time by invoking the Utilities>Global Options command and selecting Plugin Settings>Firewall from the resulting dialog box.
