Multiple Firewalls
I'm running Vista Home Premium SP2, 2 GB RAM, SAS, MBAM, CA (California
Associates) AV (e-mail scanning disabled); Avira AV/Update scheduler, CCleaner, and Windows Firewall, WLM on an Acer Aspire Desktop machine. The system is running just great, however, I've always wondered why I need both the CA and the Windows firewall running at the same time. In CA I can create a list of website that are allowed thru the firewall, but I'm not sure if I can do that with Windows firewall. Is it OK to disable the CA firewall permanently? Is there a way to specify what is allowed thru the Windows firewall. And lastly, should I just uninstall the whole CA suite altogether? Thanks in advance..........Paul C. |
