Win 98 laptop
Hello
I keep reading in this group about how crap personal, software firewalls are.
I've just been asked to take over an oldish laptop running 98SE and set it up for the user to have email and internet useage through a dialup account, using her account settings from her even older computer.
So, here is this laptop with an internal modem. It has Norton Security Suite
2001 (don't laugh).I aim to remove Norton (hints on anticipated problems appreciated) and put in a free AV.
Given that there will be no firewall, what should I do in the 98SE settings to stop it being attacked the moment it goes on line?
Cheers
