 I have this configurations showed in the images in the AVG SBS Internet
 Security 9. I am using Pidgin by Bonjour service by windows to allow all
 the computers and MAC communicate to each other. The MAC users use iChat
 configured with Bonjour service too. Well the question is why even I
 configured to be allowed Bonjour Service and Pidgin in the firewall's
 config I cant even see my friend's list. If I disable the AVG Firewall it
 does allowing me to see all the users I spoke above. What I should do? All
 is well configured in the Pidgin settings.

Comment:

 Make sure that you allow inbound and outbound TCP and UDP connections on
 the following ports: 5297,5298,5353,5354

 If that still doesn't work, you'll have to look at what ports are being
 used when it does work with AVG disabled and expose those as well.

 Anything else you'll have to ask the AVG folks for help about.
