| subject: | Re: Problems with an XP PC-Tha |
| The biggest difference between the XP firewall and 3rd party ones is | that the 3rd party software also blocks outgoing connections until | approved. XP's simply blocks incoming which is fine if you can | guarantee no nefarious software being installed that "calls home" or | otherwise utilizes outgoing traffic. Since there's so many free options | out there, there's no reason to stick with the XP one... +-[JG=>MP] This person has had problems in the past. At one point, I believe they were probably running a zombie for China and East Europe all at once. I had warned them about keeping things up to date, but they've admitted that maybe they have not.
