Re: [PCTECH] Need firewall protection, but have to LiveUpdate w/o firewall. What to do?

[Scott Johnson <sjohnson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If I understand you correctly, you are behind a Hardware firewall.  If that is 
true, you should be protected unless someone has opened up something there that 
they should not have.

Why would you want to install a Software based one?  I work behind a Linksys 
router.  I do not run any type of firewall software on the PC itself. Why take 
up CPU cycles running something that is done a lot better someplace else.  Heck 
for the longest time I did not even have virus software on the PC.
