Hello, I agree, a Firewall should not be running any non-needed services, that is why you have a DMZ or SSN. To place your mail, DNS and other servers that require Internet access. I believe two of the most secure firewalls are Cisco Pix and the BorderWare Firewall. Cisco does not offer any services and Borderware offers a few for small business and are very restrictive. I suggest you get your money back -- I would rather take a linux box with lids (Linux Intrusion Detection System [ www.lids.org ]) then the Sidewinder. Michael.

The operating system should be better protected against a wide-range of exploits."Implementing two of the most common targets of exploit sort of eliminates the usefulness of that "better" protection. Return their product and get your money back.
