|
|
Is it a good firewall? I have the entire ESET Smart Security, but the Firewall doesn't seem.. too active. I used to have ZoneAlarm and it prompts me on a lot of things, but ESET's doesn't seem to do anything. If not, what's a good firewall?

Probably because it has a large database on whether or not a program/process is safe or not compared to ZoneAlarm.

Yes it is good.But if you want to be prompted for every connection you should change to interactive filter mode.To change to interactive filter mode:-
#Change to advanced mode.
#Select Setup.
#Under Setup,select Personal Firewall.
#The select, switch to interactive filter mode.

| Zone Alarm detects anything connecting to the internet and you can choose YES or NO.
