Painful Port Opening

[chim]

I need to open a few thousand ports on my XP firewall for a specific program to use. Problem is, I'd need to enter each port separately. Are there programs available that can configure your firewall with you doing less work than if you did it by hand? I know of a couple programs that auto configure the XP firewall so they won’t be blocked by it, but I'm no programmer, so I can't wrap my head around decompiling them to dig out the port forwarding script. Any help?

I haven't seen anything like that around,, I guess you could always remove the bulit in firewall and use the third party software like ZA and Black ICE...
