you are right. however, without firewall i'm getting intrusions from other pcs.
i know because when i had norton firewall running it recorded multiple attacks from various ips on a daily basis.
i'm just trying to lock the fkn bitch up hard ;) |

Like Dave said, if your ADSL modem is a router, then it has an in-built firewall, |
i'm on bpa gayble, not gaydsl.
and it does have a built in firewall. i just don't trust it. |

When it comes to popups and spyware
change browser - maxthon (IE based) or firefox, or something else
for firewall
i say Kerio 2.1.5 personal firewall > *
old but awesome |

Anth, a firewall isn't going to help u with that. i've got some decent programs at home u could use, cant remember the names now but pm me if u want the details.
i've got a wireless router so i mainly just use the firewall on that to block out attacks and configure it to work with bittorrent etc. u should ask james for advice, hes pretty clued up with this stuff :)

yeh i know the firewall won't stop spyware. the firewall is for the intrusions. my bad for not clarifying it in the original post.
it's all good. james' knowledge is scary lol. |

Get yourself a decent spyware cleaner like Spybot - Search and Destroy or Ad-Aware (or both).
Zonealarm's a pretty good firewall, still bloatware though but easier to use than most other free firewalls. |

If you want a dedicated firewall run something like Kerio on it's own machine.
If you want something running on your machine sygate and or zonealarm are both decent for end users.
Kerio is as close as it gets to a hardware firewall on windows.
Smoothwall is the best, for dedicated but it's on Linux.
