Windows has its own integrated firewall, which is active by default since SP2, so it's kinda pointless having another one, unless you're the kind of guy to wear both belt and suspenders at the same timeAnd I certainly hope it won't let anything through unless you allow it, cause that actually what a firewall is meant to do...

True, indeed. However, once the malware is installed, there's not much you can do since 99% of XP accounts are root. I also believe blocking every software trying to acces internet on the port 80 by displaying pop ups going "are you sure?", followed by a "really? are you sure you are sure?" a "dude, you're going to blow up your pc..." and finally a "ok ok, I allow the connection, but don't wine afterwards 'cause you have viruses" will very quickly lead to a "screw the firewall, allow every outbound connection" reaction from the unaware user Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites mnealtx 0 #38 August 17, 2008 I don't disagree - I believe in a hardware firewall (router), software firewall, antivirus and popup/adware blockers.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.
