firewall discussions

[Alan]

I and many of my clients have been using the firewall that is part of
the V-COM system suite 5 package for some time with WIN 95/98/me/xp
home/xp pro. Seems to work very well with all the DSL services in this
(socal) area and supplements the hardware firewall in routers with no
problem. The entire suite is well worth its cost (less that the same
collection would be from Norton or McAfee) and is as close to user
useable for all levels of sophistication as any package I have tried.

Having a firewall didn't prevent you from using your real email address,
though. I hope you're prepared to have your inbox filled with spam and
virus-ridden email attachments. Address harvesting bots scour the
newsgroups for this sort of thing.
