288054 2004-11-04 23:56:00 I used Norton Internet Security 2003 is it safe to turn of Microsoft Firewall which came with Service Pack 2 and just use Norton Internet Security???

Would appreciate any advice anyone could give me...

288055 2004-11-04 23:57:00 Just use one firewall to avoid conflicts Davesdad (923)
288056 2004-11-04 23:58:00 Yes, turning off Windows firewall would be recommended when Norton's firewall is on. robert_m_r_w (3943)
288057 2004-11-05 00:49:00 Yup I use 2003, without XP's firewall on here np at all.

I see also the WMI updates, have finally appeared for the AV and firewall, so even if XP's firewall is off, security centre knows when the firewall and the av are up to date.
