HaHaHaHaHa. To heck with the Vista firewall. I just ran all the tests with it off and got exactly the same results. So, I'll be looking for a firewall where I can turn all its features off except for excellent outbound protection. I'm turning Windows firewall off for good. Talk about full circles. It doesn't do anything I want effectively/convincingly. If you want a good router firewall, then I recommend the Linksys WRT54GS very highly. I had found that I seemed to be invisible on the web before when using only this firewall, but the tests I used were not nearly as comprehensive as the Shields Up tests. |
