How do I configure NIS 2011.

Dear Forum. I'm new here and have a question. I currently run a security system with cameras at my home. The company just came out with and app for my Palm Pre'. The program will allow the user to view his/her cameras from their cellphone. The program is loaded on my laptop and the cellphone software acts as and addon. Anyway the app didn't work until I dropped the firewall for the 15min. Default time and it worked perfectly. After the firewall came back up. I was unable to view the cameras. I'm still unable to use the app with NIS firewall up or down. I'm not sure if it is the addon or NIS that is the problem. How can I configure NIS 2011 to allow all traffic to run to and from the program with no restrictions? I just want that 1 program to run that way.
