Windows SP2 Firewall
« on: August 29, 2004, 09:17 »
Right, now I have SP2, the first thing I did was to switch off the Firewall, as it's been said that it's still not as good as a third party Firewall - but why?  What's wrong wrong with it?

So it still[/b] doesn't monitor outgoing traffic!  I thought that was the main issue with the old Windows Firewall, and this new one was suppose to fix it!  Oh well, at least we know we can still rely on M$ to cock things up!

Well like it says on the tin, best to have only one firewall running, so I'm sticking with what I know works ZoneAlarm.

As you can gather today I have downloaded and installed SP2 and so far  every things seems to be working fi....................................
