Much to my suprise I quickly found out I can no loner use Zone Alarm for
a firewall. Shouls I be considering the purchase of Norton or McAfee or
just use the Windows built in firewall. Thanks
Two points:
1. In my view. the Norton security software is the worst available and
McAfee is second worst. I strongly recommend staying away from everything
either makes.
2. The built-in Vista firewall is fine.
