    But ok....so there is a flaw in the firewall....ok, we can live with that....people make mistakes, overlook potential errors....right? Yes.
    When you don't let me know though and make it seem as though I am safe....now that down right naughty. They knew about this and didn't say anything....wow, can you just imagine all those users right now who think they are sage becuase XP now has its own built in firewall?

    Well, any firewall that don't really show you what it's doing I don't trust. That's why I also use Segate Firewall for backup.

    I don't see why peeps would chose to hire an invisible security guard over one they can see . It just doesn't make any sense.

    I dont really believe in software firewalls much, no faith at all.

    yup. You know it’s supposed to be working but there's nothing to show that it's actually doing anything.
