I uninstalled Norton Internet Security 2003 and Norton Antivirus 2003.
Won't be using NIS anymore but might continue using NAV (still debating
on that one). Wow, surfing got a lot quicker. However, I then enabled
the ICF (Internet Connection Firewall) that comes with Windows XP.
Until I decide on what firewall to replace NIS with, I still want
something (plus my router has a firewall, too, but again not as potent).
Since I am now running ICF (temporarily), I noticed a new process in
Task Manager for alg.exe. Right-clicking on the file says it is from
Microsoft and its description is "Application Layer Gateway". Is this
Microsoft's firewall?
