Hi Martin,

What's wrong with the firewall in Windows 7?  By all accounts, not
only is it good, it's accessible.

Subject: [access-uk] Firewall for windows 7 revisited

I tried the latest version of zone alarm but every time I tried to 
connect to the internet jaws (vie dectalk express) Narrator via my 
sound card, in fact all sound from the speaker hung. Once I 
removed   zone alarm all was well again.

I really would like to install an accesible firewall, anyone out 
there using one with windows 7?

Thanks
Martin
