I've been using Zone Alarm w/AV for years...updated on demand of the server.
They want to dump my version in May so I installed a new Firewall (Stand
alone)
I grabbed avast as it was at pricelessware...hey, I've never been let down.
Oh, wait! I've been running Webroot (resident) and S&D (resident) for
over a year -- also updated.
Well, the first time I run avast? It finds three trojans! Been in here
since before last summer?
All three were on the lists of the apps I have in residence and update
and scan with!
I've always believed that a 'false sense of security and no security' is
a difference without distinction?
I have checked out my firewall at the Spinrite outfit ...they said I was
locked down, good.
But if an AV prog (no help anyway with a trojan...) plus Webroot and
S&D missing three common trojans? My confidence level is nill!
I do feel better about avast - it worked! So, what's the best site to
test a firewall.
Oh - I run Mozilla 1x (7?8?) My Bookmarks are three feet long. Is
there a 'horzional' approach available? No, I've not yet figured out
how to sort them by 'date only' either. It appears to only sort by date
'&' alphabetically...
