Douglas, what do most people on here do then? Should I turn Windows Firewall off completely and use something else like Kireo, or keep Windows Firewall on and also use another one?

Donna, I don't want to worry you, but unless I am very much mistaken, the Windows firewall does not monitor outgoing traffic. This could be important if, for example, you managed to get a piece of Adware/Spyware on your system which tries to send information out without your knowledge.
