Re: Leo Laport says software firewall not needed! I only really run a software firewall as I use a method which doesn't allow for a hardware firewall, my cell phone, or dial-up at times.
However I would still continue to run one to prevent the built-in windows networking, and administration from being used in a networked environment, it would also allow me to restrict which ip addresses could use windows built-in networking within the network. -- My hourly rates: $25 per hour. $35 per hour if you want to watch. $45 per hour if you want to help. $75 per hour if you tried to fix it, and failed. The biggest error is sitting in front of your keyboard. |
