Well, I wont say that one is better than the other but sygate certainly is easier to configure and I have had less issues running it. I don't remember what people say about windows firewall, like it does not enable you to control the outgoing ports or what ever but I do know that sygate is accessible, it does enable you to control both incoming and outgoing and as I said, I have never had any problems with it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald Levy" <[email protected]>

Subject: [Blind-Computing][Blind-Computing] Strange Firewall Message



Hi listers. Lately, whenever I turn on my Dell Precision 390 workstation with XP Pro, or awaken it from Standby mode, I hear a message like, "Your Firewall Is Not Turned On....". This is not the case, because I have checked the Windows Firewall option on the Control Panel, and it is definitely turned on. I use AVG 7.5 Network Edition which does not have a firewall setting. So is my Windows Firewall working or not? If so, how can I get rid of this message? Everyone loves to bash MS, but would Sygate Firewall really be any better than Windows Firewall? Thanks.

Gerald
