Win XP
Noticed Windows Security Center lists Firwall and Antivirus as 'ON.'
When I go to 'Manage Security Settings For:' and select 'Firewall,' it
is listed as OFF.
Is it on or off?
I have Norton firewall and Norton Antivirus. Do I need Windows Firewall
and Antivirus?
(Can't find how to disable Windows Antivirus.)

Norton Firewall turns Windows Firewall off. You should not run two
firewalls.

There is no Windows Anti-Virus except the Malicious Software Removal Tool
that runs automatically once a month if Automatic Updates is enabled.
