Default `Firewall` Help Needed!

Hey, guys! I`m a computing retard so please be kind. Query:

At random points during downloads (specifically with video downloads) I get a pop-up message telling me that I can`t receive the file because either I have no connection to the internet (which is not the case), or a `firewall` is blocking me and denying me access.

I`ve heard of the term `firewall` before but still am not sure entirely what it is. Anway, how can I disable these in order to get files? It keeps happening. And during nearly all of my downloads I see an animated brick wall surrounded by fire indicating what I assume to be a firewall blocking that download.

Any help would be much appreciated. And sorry if I have no idea what I`m talking about or this have been covered a million times. I checked the FAQ`s but no dice.

Cheers!
