Windows Firewall

[John Barton]

Using Windows EP Home with Service Pack 2 installed on a Dell Dimension 2400
computer .Windows Firewall is factory installed as is Norton Internet
Security 2004. The subscriptions for Norton Internet Security expire soon as
it was only a 3 month subscription. I want to install Norton System Works
2004, which includes Norton Antivirus,and not renew Norton Internet
Security. Will I have sufficient internet protection with Windows Firewall
and Norton System Works?
