I also had problems starting the windows firewall service on vista.
Whenever I tried to start the Vista Firewall Service, the startup
would fail and the firewall service would log an event id 7024
(Firewall Service terminated) error in the system event log. The
specific error code listed in the event was 0x80320023.
The vista computer in question is a member of a Windows 2003 domain.
I suspected the problem was related to group policy/local policy. I
tried the following actions (rebooting after each):
1) net winsock reset
from a command prompt.
2) gpupdate /force
from a command prompt.
While both commands completed without problems, the firewall service
was not fixed.
I then removed the computer from the domain. The firewall service
then started successfully.
I then re-added the computer to the domain. The firewall service
continued to start successfully.
So, in my case, the solution was remove/re-add the computer from the
domain.

I also have this problem and have not been able to find a solution. I've
even tried everything in this thread, including this post with no luck.
So What is the verdict? Is this going to be chalked up as a VISTA feature?
Can we get a resolution? How about a clue?

I am also having the exact same problem.
I have NOT installed Windows Live One Care, or to my knowledge any other
firewall service or application.
I have tried to manually start the Windows Firewall Serve and get the same
message Jacob is getting.
This is a Windows Vista Enterprise client, in a Windows Server 2003 SP2
domain, joined and part of an OU with GPO's applied. As far as I or my
Network Administrator can tell, none of our Group Policies should have this
effect.
Other Windows Vista Enterprise clients in the same Domain/OU,with the exact
same software, do not have this problem (i.e. Windows Firewall works fine).
I'd really appreciate any help anyone can provide ASAP as I'm trying to get
ready to deploy Vista in a few weeks.
Thanks,
Aran

I am having the same exact issue with Windows Vista 32 bit. Same errors and results as previous poster. Issue seems to be identical. Anyone have any updates on this?
I dont know exactly when this started but here is some information on what I have done recently to my laptop before I noticed the issue:
My system was running slow so I ran a defrag yesterday and it took 4 hours. Then I ran registry clean expert which found hundreds of registry error which I had the software fix for me. I dont know if this is related but just thought I would mention it.
UPDATE:
This MS article fixed my issue: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943996
I had to manually set permissions to the registry keys. I did not even have to reboot but it is recommended.

Hi all
I've been reading this thread with great interest as this situation has
recently happened to me. I've tried everything mentioned here and other
fixes from elsewhere and nothings working, but this seems like a good
place to register and get good solid help.
The problem started when I installed Comodo V3, decided I wasnt happy
with it and uninstalled it, well that was a barrel of laughs and took
about 3 days to finally get it completely out of my system.
But ever since then the firewall won't start.
The only difference is instead of a service specific error 5, I get a
6801.
This is the most infuriating issue I've ever had with a windows system,
it just doesnt seem to add up.
Normally if I had an issue like this on an XP machine I would just
reinstall the last service pack or if need be repair the OS, but the
repair feature in Vista Ultimate64 is really not up to much and u cant
reinstall a SP over itself.
So I'm totally stuck here, and I really really really really do not
want to have to install vista from scratch to overcome this.
If anyone has worked out a solution to this please give me a shout

I have read through this forum as I recently started having the same problems. I decided to try and go with a system restore. When I looked through my restore points I found one where the system had been backed up when I supposedly uninstalled windows defender. Which . . . I haven't. I'm not sure if this would be related, but it could be that malware or a virus has removed some part of the windows defender service.

This worked for me:
Go into the registry editor and browse to the following keys. You will
need to set the permissions for the following account NT Service\MpsSvc.
The correct value is below the location path.
Full Control;Read
For the DHCP Client service, the issue may occur if the “NT
Service\DHCP” account does not have the necessary permissions for the
following keys:
