Say what you will, I've been doing ISP support for four years now and I haven't seen the ICF keep anyone offline. I have seen Zone Alarm suddenly block ALL incoming and outgoing traffic for no apparent reason. Then it's a real pain to remove. The ICF in WindowsXP seems to do a very good job. The only situation where it's not helpful is when you have a trojan on your system letting someone or something in. Of course, that never happens to anyone here....... -- "Don't try to explain computers to a layman-easier to explain sex to a virgin."-R.A. Heinlein |
