check this link it most answers ur question\nhttp://macarlo.com/firewallreport.htm\n\nbut u can  also read here....\n\nThe best solution is a combination of a Hardware and Software Firewall.  The Hardware box protects your perimeter before things get into your network or to your box and takes some of the load off of the software firewall.  The Software firewall then provides a further layer of protection for your computer.  With different vendors too, you get a more balanced level of protection.\n\nFor example, a nice Watchguard Firebox X Edge protects my perimeter.  It runs about $350.  It provides NAT and DHCP and will block all ports incoming unless I specifically open them up, like RDP or PCAnywhere.\n\nOn my computer then, I have Norton Internet Security.  It provides a further layer of protection.  Since the Hardware Firewall takes care of the majority of hack attacks from the Internet, my software firewall doesn't have to work as hard and my PC can use more of it's processing power for other things.  The Software firewall also protects the PC from any threat that might start from inside my network and also from malicious code that might piggyback on legitimate web requests.  The Hardware firewall will do some of that, but the software one picks up where the hardware leaves off.  The software firewall by default also blocks all outgoing requests unless I permit it.\n\nI like the Norton Internet Security, but have used Zone Alarm in the past and it has been very good.  At work, I use Windows XP XP2 firewall to further protect my internal clients.\n\nOf course on top of those things, I run Norton AntiVirus, SpySweeper 3.5, SpyBot 1.3 and use Ad Aware to augment the others.  POPupCop helps protect my PC from PopUP disaster and I use Windows Washer 5.5 to keep the Internet clutter at bay after each web session.

Yahoo messenger has nothing with virus protection or pop-up blockers. Here are some freebies.\n\n All here have totally free versions that can scan AND remove.\n\nAnti-virus downloads (complete programs free for life)\nAVG\nAnti-Vir\nAvast!\nBitDefender 8\n\nAnti-virus on-line scanners\nBitDefender\n\nAnti-Ad/Spyware downloads (complete programs free for life)\nAdaware Se\nSpybot Search and Destroy\nMicrosoft Anti-Spy Beta\nYahoo Toolbar w/ant-spy\n\nAnti-trojan Specialists downloads (complete programs free for life)\na-squared\nEwido\n\nAnti-trojan Specialists on-line scanners\nEwido\n\nFree Firewalls\nZone-Alarm\nKerio\nOutpost\n\nAd/Spyware Prevention (stops pests BEFORE the infect your computer)\nSpywareBlaster\nSpywareGuard\nIE-Spyad\nWinpatrol\n\nSome of these are "not-full-featured" versions of the developers paid programs. But they will all give more then adaquite protection for the averege home user. Sometimes you have to hunt for them a bit on the makers web-site. But they are there. I have tryed all of the above at one time or another. All work well. All are free.\n\nAlways check out any spyware programs againest the "Rogue" list at Spywarewarrior before you use it. Sadly a huge industry has sprung up, selling programs of dubious quality for big bucks. Most of the sponsered (Paid) links you see on Goggle or Yahoo search are of this type. Avoid them. A link to Spwarewarrior:\nhttp://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm#products  \n \nI would use Norton until your subscription runs out, then you can "roll your own" security suite using free products.\n\nJust remember that Norton must be totally uninstalled before using another anti-virus product or else\nthere will be a conflict. Use the tool on the Norton website to uninstall it.

First of of what kind of virus protection program do you have? I'd say the best are security suites such as Panda Software, Norton and maybe Zonealarm Security Suite.\n\nYou'd also need spyware and virus scanners and there are plenty of free quality one on the net. \nex. Spybot Search and Destroy or Webroot Spysweeper\n\nHere's a link for spyware guide \nhttp://www.firewallguide.com/spyware.htm\n\nAnd last of make sure your firewall is enabled and just make sure that you know fully what you're downloading from the internet.

The protection package provided by SWB Yahoo is a very good one. The problem is that no single  anti-spy program can stop all the spyware and adware out there. Go to this windows site and follow the procedure to scan and remove them:\n\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/IE/community/columns/bugbusting.mspx\n\nI suggest you keep these programs on your computer and use them with you SWB Yahoo online protection package. You can use only one AV program, but many AS programs.\n\nAfter you get it cleaned up, go here and download Cyberhawk. It works with the AV and AS programs and will provide another layer of protection,.\n\nhttp://www.novatix.com/Home.aspx\n\nNext download Site Advisor. It will warn you of bad sites while you surf the net. The site will explain how it works.\n\nhttp://www.siteadvisor.com/\n\nEverything I've listed is Free and works very good. I use all of this and haven't had an infection in 5 months.

Firefox avoids a few security exploits in IE but it is not really a virus protection at all.\n\nYour firewall and anti-virus is your protection, not your browser.\n\n///

Use a good comination of antivirus, firewall and anti-spyware. There are manmy available for free and worth to do the task. Zone-alarm is best free firewall protection. Spybot search and destroy is good ant-spyware. Antivir is good free antivirus (Lite on machine also).\nYou can use Trend Micro Internet Security 2006 suite OR Symantech Internet Security 2006 bundle. They are great all in one package but costs a lot and resouse hungry.

Firewalls don't protect against viruses, though better ones such as ZoneAlarm, Kerio, and Sygate will alert you to suspcious behavior.  For virus protection, the best thing is an antivirus program.  Some good free ones are AVG, AVAST! Home edition, and AntiVir.
