How many personal firewalls in a system?
I want to try to cut through the techno-speak about firewalls. I have XP Home with SP2 and it has Personal Firewall in it. I also run Trend's PC-Cillin AV software. This program ALSO has a Personal Firewall in it. Should I not use ONLY one or the other? Does it do any good to run them both simultaneously? I have a LAN running through a router using DSL. I do a lot of Internet surfing so I worry about viruses and attacks. So, am I correct? Use only one Personal Firewall at a time?
