Hi TRD,

Some games will accept CTRL+Enter or ALT+Enter to toggle between
Full Screen <> Window mode, other games require a switch to be added
to the shortcut for the program i.e.: c:\proga~1\game\game.exe -window

You might be able to grant access rights to the executable before launching
the game somewhere within the application settings applet of your firewall,
otherwise, press ALT+TAB when you launch the game to tab to desktop.
