Antivirus/malware/"FW" question by shargo 2008-06-08 01:59:03
I've been given a promo licens for Kaspersky Internet Security 7.
Today I'm running Avast! and XPs built-in "FW". Which is prefferred?
(The K licence is a full one, a friend got a couple of them at his w0rk)

(FW in quotation marks since I don't see an application run on the client
as a real firewall. A real one is a physical box between two networks
(and it should be able to handle rules, filters etc). One day when I'm not to
lazy I will finish setting up a nix-box for that purpose.)

I'm of to w0rk a bit so I wont be reading replies to this question in some hours.

TIA
