Cristy From what I have read, yes the new Firewall with SP 2 will ask you if programs may have access to the Internet, like ZA does. If they both can be run at the same time this might be bothersome until the new firewall has been set to allow the programs you usually let go to the Internet. Since I have not downloaded SP2 yet, I cannot say for sue the two will run together, just that I have read they will. I wish I remembered where I read that so I could provide details. Also I do not know how we will turn off the new SP 2 firewall either.

I do have cable. I was wondering if I should turn off its firewall because I use zone alarm and have been happy with it. But if they can both run without problems, I guess it would not hurt to leave it on. Does it work like zone alarm asking me if I want programs/etc to go through? christy ----- Original Message ----- To unsub or change your email settings: http://www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ http://www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: http://www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk
