Make disabling the firewall service optionalΒ #55

According to Microsoft, if you want to turn off the firewall you should do so by turning off the profiles but not disabling the windows service. This causes VERY bad things to happen since it's an integral part of the networking stack on windows. Therefore i think there should be some sort of feature to say disable the profiles but leave the service running.
