Subject: Re: [H] Windows 7 Firewall

In recent years I've pretty much stopped using any 3rd party security
software. Builtin firewall. No spyware software (I'll install programs
temporarily to do a scan and make sure I'm clean -- last time I used
Malwarebytes I think). No antivirus -- but then I've never really run
my personal computer with antivirus software. Just keep the system
patched, etc.

Work computers--yes to spyware/virus software, personal no.

What's the consensus, am I playing with fire? :p

Hello,

As for Antivirus/Firewall I use Norton Internet Security 2010. I know
they
used to suck, but in 2009 they turned things around. Only bad part is
you
need to pay yearly subscription.

As for Spyware Looks like NIS is doing the job as well. Watches
websites and
even tells you if the site is somewhere you should not be :)

Subject: [H] Windows 7 Firewall

I have made the Win7 Pro clean install upgrade. I am running SAV
10.2.0.298 but I still need to make a choice on a software firewall
and maybe some anti spyware ... or is Win7 firewall good enough. I
have a ZoneAlarm System works license for the latest version which I
got for free last year, but ZA has become so  annoying in the last
couple of years, and you can't just install the firewall anymore. So
what does the collective use for Win7 firewall... Spyware?
