remove Windows Home and use Windows Professional.
Sorry I just hate home because the network client is a pain in the ass to troubleshoot as the menus aren't the robust menus of Pro.
I'd go with that extra firewall being a problem as well, or at least a pathway to start. Remove that as suggested.

Socket error = #10061
10061 is a Connection Refused error sent to you by the server. You could not make a connection because the target machine actively refused it. The most common cause is a misconfigured server, full server, or incorrect Port specified by the client.

good luck!
