KM299 Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 To start off, this link will show you and tell you how Windows Firewall helps your computer. Link: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/s...n_firewall.mspx .Windows Firewall; Windows Firewall is a program that is installed into your computer when it is made or created. And this is pretty much what Windows Firewall does, It helps your computer stay safe from Null attacks and Network/Port attacks.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is a tutorial on how to keep your computer safe, this is not like Windows Firewall, The above link tells you how Windows Firewall protects your computers. Link: http://www.cert.org/homeusers/HomeComputerSecurity/ . This tutorial is alot more descriptive then the previous or other current tutorials or links.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Now lets talk about some of the "best" Anti-Virus programs out at the moment.These are my views on some of the current Anti-Spyware, Anti-Malware and Anti-Virus programs.Kaspersky Labs inc.: I recently had this AntiMalware program on my computer and I, I repeat I, Loved it. It is amazing. There is a Trail for this program (30days) and you can also choose to buy this program. Link: http://www.kaspersky.com/NOD32 or ESET Home Security: This. Is. An. Amazing. Program. No questions asked, it is just simply amazing. Link: http://www.eset.com/Malware Bytes' Anti-Malware: This program fits the description of NOD32/ESET. This is another amazingnoquestionsasked program. This fits together perfect with NOD32 and ESET since they are both light on resources.Well, that's all my perspectives on good Anti-whatever programs/software.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Now, we got past the good Anti-whatever programs/software, time to talk about the bad programs.OK, the list to too long, so I will post a download link, and a virus scan.
