Voice Chat When Using A Firewall

Hello When I use ICQ, or MSN Messanger I have to shut my firewall down so the person i'm talking too can hear me. I can hear them fine they just can't hear me. I don't like the idea of disabaling my firewall so can anyone tell me how to configure my firewall so that lucky person on the other end can hear me.

OP
I figured it out. I just disabled automatic rule setting, then I set up a voice chat session and created a rule that would allow that transmission to go through, and that as they say is that. Wonder why Norton Tech couldn't tell me that.????
