WinXp Firewall AND Outpost Firewall ??

hello



id like to know, is it ok if i have the WinXp OS Firewall on and also Outpost Firewall for better protection ? someone told me the OS firewall acts as a back up ?? that its better?



Thanks!! :)



oh, and also could you tell me, can you have more than one Anti-Virus App running if there is no conflicts?

XP firewall is basically useless as it doesn't do much to prevent OUTgoing traffic. Should you get infected with a trojan, it isn't going to do much in the way of protecting you.



Don't be so paranoid! :) you only need one good firewall and one good antivirus. Oh and NOT using internet explorer would be a good idea too, too many exploits there. Firefox is great.

No, You can't run more than one Antivirus.



Windows XP Firewall will automatic turn off if you have outpost firewall on.
No you never use more than one firewall or more than one antivirus. That is a recipe for disaster. The best protection online is a little common sense. Outpost is a very good firewall as well as Comodo if you haven't looked by the way.
