| 1175066 | 2011-02-03 23:02:00 | Hi All I have the above on the computer. But,when I start the comp I have to turn it on. It does NOT come on automaticaly. Why not? I also have Privatefirewall 7.0, which I am trying. Could this be affecting Windows Firewall? I do realise that I should only run one FW. Thanks. PJ |

| 1175067 | 2011-02-03 23:04:00 | Thats why because youre running another firewall. Its probably disabled the windows firewall. And youre right, only 1 firewall should be running, or they'll conflict | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1175068 | 2011-02-04 01:18:00 | I have private firewall on my XP desktop, but don't require for W7 laptop. Good simple firewall, but can get numerous pop up's when downloading/installing some programs, and will stop them from installing including certain SP updates. So need to train it so it knows. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||

PJ You don't say what version of Windows you are running as Vista and 7 have a proper one already where as WinXp only has one that stops incoming but not outgoing. |

XP Home SP3. Have deleted Privatefirewall 7.0 for the moment. So now I have MSSE & Windows Firewall. I am somewhat confused now, I don't know which to settle on. A pity Nod32 doesn't have a Free version.PJ. |
