Hi, I'd like to know it there are some firewalls working fine in default. I don't like to spend time to study. ;) thanks
bye Ulisse

Then pay someone else to secure your computer/network for you.
If you don't then I'll probably continue to see spam and other probes from compromised interbusiness.it boxes.

Who does?
No problem.

Thanks for your news. Now I have just tried ZA and it works fine in default way.
Sincere condolences.
Yours, VB.
Just curious, by what process did you arrive at your conclusion that it "works fine in default way"?

Oh, that ol' thing. Come on, it's not funny after the millionth time you see it.
Whoever said that the truth has to be funny?

A NAT router works fine in its default state out of the box. It takes little or no configuration on your part and is easy to learn.

Certainly hope not.It's on dialup and only used at certain times - not every day, but a botnet master probably wouldn't care as long as he has control over the computer. I know they prefer broadband setups. About a week ago there was a segment on CNN showing one botnet master could control about 100,000 computers at one time. Amazing.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Isn't this an oxymoron? ;-)
Why do you think so? Usually botnets are build up automagically.
Yours, VB.
I would think the broadband speed would be advantageous.

Now that you mention that it does jar my memory - you're right.
Hey, that's a serious issue. Symantec Suite of Norton stuff works exactly that way.
New: Norton CPU Eater. While it eats your CPU cycles, no evil software can run.
If you want to install Symantec Software, you first have to install SoftRAM (tm) to double your RAM ;-)

Already developed so far? The last time I heard of it it could only squeeze 3 possible states into a bit cell of memory. Now they got 4? ;-)
SoftRAM[0] was developed for Windows95 - if they kept up with Moore's Law they can probably already squeze 8 bits into one cell ;-)
[0] Does anybody actually remember that piece of crap? Times were hard back then - 128MB of RAM were high-end, Gigabytes were what you measured harddrives in... but only if you had RAID-arrays.Juergen Nieveler
