You only need one firewall...
and i dont have one lmao
*As in programs wisee
Router Firewall
ESET Smart Security
Vista Firewall.
I only have the firewall on my router protecting me lol.
I would say that the firewalls/security software that Tawm recommended are a good bet :)
A hardware firewall and the build in firewall in Windows is what most people have and is generally perfectly fine.
i have trend micro internet security
I been reading up, and alot of them say that windows firewall is pretty much useless.
I dunno lol :P
I'm just anxious if I need one
A router will have a built in firewall which will do the job, pretty much exactly what you need as it's not like you will have to best security team hackers trying to get at you, even if you did they probably wouldn't do it that way anyway: rolleyes: the router and the windows firewall is fine.
Norton on this pc and just windows defender on my eee
unless there's one pre-installed with a new computer, none.
I use McAfee Security Suite
I use Common Sense 2009 (RC1). Never let me down. :rolleyes:
No need for one when you have a Mac ;)
Norton. I don't know why every one dis's norton, it does a great job :)
Haha, at first I thought you were saying, I use my common sense! Anyway, never heard of that.Quote:

When I used it at one point, it told me symantec was a virus... which was what created Norton.Quote:
