Chris I would like to do that. You may recall from some time back, I asked about having removed the permissions from Windows 7 and Barry advised me that it was not a clever thing to do. How do I restore this function please as I got someone to do this for me?
Thank you. Eleanor----- Original Message ----- From: "chris hallsworth" <christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Agreed. Touch wood I have not been hacked on my Windows 7 machines. Not only that; I raised my user account control so that even Windows-based programs and services require permission from me before continuing.Chris H You can contact me in the following ways: E-mail and Facebook: challsworth2@xxxxxxx MSN: ch9675@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: chrishallsworth7266 Blog: http://chrishallsworth.klangoblogs.net On 06/11/2010 14:04, George Bell wrote:Hi Martin, What's wrong with the firewall in Windows 7?

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 Kevin recently said:-Hi, I use the free version of Zone Alarm on both my Win7 desktop and laptop and find it absolutely fine. I can't remember the direct link but, if you go to the Zone Alarm site I recollect that it is fairly easy to find it from there.

I'd like to ask about whether I need to install a firewall for win7 or whether the firewall built into it is adequate, I know there were holes in the XP firewall but have not heard anything re the one in win7. So if I need one can anyone suggest one, a freeby would be nice but I don't mind jpurchasing if it is going to be more secure. Any links to sites, suggestions etc. much appreciated.
