Completely wrong ~ UNLESS one IS Windows firewall (But STILL not to be done). If you tried running say...Norton with Comodos firewall you could very well end up with an unbootable computer
as you just said yourself windows one.....and you can have a hardware firewall and a software firewall running together
AND AGAIN i'll say a firewall is useless compared to a good antivirus and antispyware....If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have failed to plan properly
I've only ever been wrong once! and that was when I thought I was wrong but I was right0 -
so i'm not completetly wrong then am I :mad:

Calm down cat! I was trying to explain to anyone READING it that you shouldnt have 2 SOFTWARE firewalls together. I personally never count hardware firewalls as in all fairness they are NOT firewalls. They just stop certain attacks, nothing more.
And I cant say a software firewall is 'useless' either..........:idea:0
