Hi all
I currently have the free PCTools firewall installed, and I've seen on here a few people mentioning installing Threatfire as well.
Two questions:-
1) Is it worth installing and, if so, what does it do?
2) Is it free?

threatfire is free
Its a secondary RESIDENT scanner (scans all the time)
I uninstalled it. Wasnt a drain on resources as such, just found it a waste of time as I already use Avira:idea:0 -
Ahhh, so, theoretically, as I already have Avira, I don't need Threatfire?:wall: Flagellation, necrophilia and bestiality - Am I flogging a dead horse? :wall:
