I don't think you understand what I meant. Please allow me to clarify. The 
suggestion was that we should set the default in such a way that would work 
regardless of what the user installs after the installation of Workstation 
itself. We have no way of doing that. We cannot just guess what the user means 
to install while we're in Anaconda. Unfortunately, mind reading hardware isn't 
there yet.

I would agree, leave firewalls up by default.
