ActiveSync 3.xx and pre-WM5 devices are less problematic because they don't use TCP/IP to communicate with host PC. I don't know why Microsoft decided to switch to TCP/IP communication in WM5 and ActiveSync 4.xx. Now every signle firewall software will get in the way of ActiveSync, sometimes, even Microsoft's own firewall. 99% of the ActiveSync problem are firewall related.
