Free Firewall?
I use ZA Free. It is unstable and creates conflicts on
the system including connection to RoadRunner, which was installed today and blocked today. I'm afraid to allow any outgoing traffic as I don't know which are legit. Are there any other free firewalls available? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch. KB |

Choose 1 only. Installing more than 1 firewall software is not recommended. If you are running Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), Windows Firewall is turned on by default.

Heck - I still run 2.1.5 on XP!!!
I took a quick look at the added complexity of later versions, and decided that I had better things to do (like lifting my right armg) -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2005, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Shane" wrote in message ...

Hey, Noel.
Is 2.1.5 more stable and less conflicting than ZA Free, in your opinion? Thanks, KB -----Original Message----- Heck - I still run 2.1.5 on XP!!!

You don't need to be Noel to answer an emphatic yes to that!

I figured I ought to look at the 4.1.x series. Once it's configured it's
fine (on XP). I guess I'm still using it for two reasons, that there's seemingly no reason not to, and to keep abreast of the latest build (now 4.1.3). It doesn't interfere with my drinking - though I had managed not to touch a drop today until you brought the subject up! Shane "Noel Paton" wrote in message ... Heck - I still run 2.1.5 on XP!!!

Point taken, Shane. Noel bailed me out nearly a year ago
so not only do I enjoy his posts but respect his guidance. It's one of those things. ZA really fights with a lot of things. I'll give 2.1.5 a whirl (by itself of course) and see how it works.
