Bypassed software firewall?
Is it possible for a hostile thing such as a Trojan etc, to get onto a machine, define its own internet or network connection and bypass a software resident firewall ? Please exclude replies where the hostile content disables the firewall as this is common of many trojans etc . This is well know Also exclude replies where an inept user allows such thing through .
.. I mean only something that renders the firewall useless by bypassing it or renderubg it in-effective . If so, What can I do to prevent this ? What can be done to discover this ? short of a re-installation of the OS?
Thanks in advance
