Thanks Bruce Chambers for your contributions here about
blocking fake MS spam emails in this group - very
informative and helpful.
Despite enabling the XP firewall and blocking mail (hiding
to nothing there I think - my guess is that the worms that
are responsible automatically modify the sender address
every time) I'm thinking of installing Zone Alarm, despite
reading some unfavourable reports. (my system is non-
networked, single user running XP home 5.1.2600, Intel
2.4Gb processor 512Mb RAM, so am assuming ZoneAlarm will
be stable).
Is this the best Firewall?
Might ZA conflict with the built-in XP Home firewall, and
should I disable the latter first?
Is it advisable to create a Sys Restore point first, so
that I can uninstall ZA completely if I don't or the
system doesn't like it? Or is this just risibly neurotic?
