I use no software based firewall type software because they are
full of trouble. Ask Leo Laporte - the techguy show out of KFI -
San Francisco. And many others feel the same way. I use a router
for firewall protection and only use Norton Anti-Virus 2005 and
not the Norton Security version as I said here I use no software
firewall.
Thanks.
