O.K. I'm the first one to admit that this ? is a "Oh no not Again!" deal by
now, I just got done spending 2 weeks trouble shooting (on and off the comp.
at home in 20 min. sessions between family members) and getting NetWork to
work correctly after a free firewall tied things up. I the firewall enabled
that comes with Win. XP Pro now. It certainly seems that when I look back on
the 10 years I've been maintaining my home systems that the big problems I
have to clean up mainly start with Firewalls. I have Win XP Pro ofcourse and
a router through which my 2 computers are Networked. The Linksys RT31P2 feeds
off a Cable modem. I,m asking this question here once again 'cause I'm going
to go to a wireless network ( wireless'n' most likely) soon and I have read
where a firewall is really desirable. So please weigh in and possibly save me
greif. Peace.
