So earlier today, I launched LOTRO and it froze on the loading screen. So I shut off my computer (couldn't minimize), and turned it back on. After start up, I loaded LOTRO quick and then exited, and a message popped up before I launched the game I guess saying Windows Firewall has blocked permission for lotroclient.exe, and it said "Allow access on private network", and I clicked "Allow access". Why did this pop up? I haven't done anything with the Windows Firewall, and never removed LOTRO from it (don't even remember putting it there before, to be honest, assuming it automatically adds itself). So why did it do this, and is it alright that I allowed it access? I seemed to be able to launch the game just fine before I saw the message and allowed it access.
