Does anyone know how good the firewall in Win XP is? Would another one such as Zonealarm be recommended in addition?

27496 2001-12-13 06:35:00 From what i hear, the firewall is not the greatest. Does stop alot, but in no way protects you if you have anything uploading (whether you want it to or not!). My advice - stick with zonealarm, perhaps the best free piece of software money cant buy!! One thing to watch though, as ive noticed zone alarm having trouble starting the true vector service in windows XP. If you do have trouble, go to services (admin tools) and start manually. Guest (0)
