You may want to take a look at the topic just mailed out on one of the other SecurityFocus mailing lists called Open Source Windows Firewalls, they seem to have some very good alternatives compared to the built in Windows firewall. On 3/1/06, Goldstein101 <goldstein101 () gmail com> wrote:
I noticed that Windows Firewall does not notify me before dynamically adding new rules to allow traffic through. This concerns me greatly and I am contemplating turning Windows Firewall off and relying on Zonealarm. Any comments?Definitely man. Switch Windows firewall off. ZoneAlarm is a good product. In my opinion you can rely on him to protect your box. M$oft is always a bit dodgy when it comes to security. -- Goldstein. Room 101, Ministry of Truth. W2, London.
