Firewalls - KTN - 02-12-2007 Right now I just use Windows firewall. Is this good enough or should I be looking around to find something better? Im running Norton antivirus, Spy Sweeper and Windows firewall. Im thinking im lacking in the firewall department:conf: RE: Firewalls - Turbala - 02-12-2007 I use Kerio's firewall, it's free and it's enough for me... It's running ok with avast! Turbala RE: Firewalls - McIvan - 02-12-2007 RE: Firewalls - Antoni Chmielowski - 02-12-2007 I use Norton Internet Security 2005, and have set it to allow CM to connect to the internet for IP games. The other thing to consider is do you use a wireless router ?, if you do this can cause problems. As I`m an old fart, I just plug my USB ADSL modem into one of my USB ports and NEVER have any problems. RE: Firewalls - Tanker - 02-13-2007 I just use the Windows firewall and it is perfectly adequate. I found zonealarm and Nortons to cause problems for me. I used it before getting a router, which also acts as a firewall. RE: Firewalls - Mike Abberton - 02-13-2007 I am just using the Windows firewall, as well, with a router. I figure that is two levels of protection, which should be adequate. I used Norton Internet Security for a while, but found it to slow things down, and I am pretty sure that it was, at least partially, the cause of some random crashes I was experiencing. I replaced Norton IS with the Windows firewall and AVG's free virus software, and things run quite a bit better now.
