Firefox + AVG/Avast/AntiVir? Most of the trouble people come to me with is
split between the crap that made it on their machine using IE,  and all the
crap they've thrown at it trying to get rid of the other crap. I just use
the built in XP firewall with AVG Free and Firefox for home users. It works
great. Of course using a consumer d-link-gear-sys broadband firewall at the
edge is a given.

Subject: Firewall for home users

 

Hi Folks:

 

I'm frequently asked by users here for recommendations for home firewall
devices (other than desktop software).  They are looking for a small device
that does firewall functions, malware protection, scans for spyware and
viruses.  We use a bunch of small Fortinet devices here that do that (as
well as content filtering) but I don't think Fortinet sells to the home
user.  Is there anything like this for home users out there?

 

Thanks,

Tom
