OK....found the suggested Firewall settings....and entered them using elevated command.
These were :

........MP runs...but suggests that ports are still blocked...and TV won't function
Switching off both Firewall...and Anti virus (COMODO) doesn't help.
(BTW......Does COMODO need a similar set of instructions to allow MP to function?)
I have attached TV Server log files and would really appreciate some help.
