Mysterious Firewall Turned On

Had a server that the firewall was turned on, but no one knows how it
happened. Can you accidentally turn it on with a key combination? I have
turned auditing on to catch this, but is there anyway for me to tell how or
who turned it on?

thanks -- dee

It could be the group policy.

Don't have any group policies on this server. This server has been rebooted
several times before without any issue. All the users who were on the server
that day say they didn't do anything, I am just trying to figure out a way if
it could have been turned on by an accidental key combination or something.
