I installed WinXP Service Pack 2 (SP-2). It defaults to "Windows Firewall
ENABLED". Would appreciate some responses from several others on these
questions...
a) Do I need to turn off (DISABLE) the WINDOWS firewall? My 2003 Linksys
router BEFSX41 VPN router already has a firewall. Will Win-Firewall
interfere with my Linksys Router/Switch? Will it interfere with the ability
to share files among PC's behind the router? Will it create any other
problems?
b) Windows also makes its "Windows Security Center" the default, over McAfee
Online (which I pay $29/year for)...but after installing SP2, McAfee
instantly uploaded an update which asked me to make McAfee the DEFAULT and
gave a message something about I could have conflicts if I select NO (don't
make McAfee the default). What are most people doing here?
Thanks
