Title: Running Windows Vista Firewall in Tandem with Comodo
Post by: leem on August 26, 2009, 02:05:59 AM

Hi,

Having received your great advice the other day I haver thoroughly cleaned all my computers at home - and they're all running like new.

All that is, except the NEW one!!!!

I've begun to deep clean it and, am at the stage where I have just added Comodo. As the title suggests, the laptop is new and has vista. The firewall with this seems pretty competant and interjects every time u click to download something, breathe out of place or scratch your arse!!!!

Is it necessary/efficient to run another firewall such as Commodo or Zonealarm - or is the whole idea of Vista to be self sufficient????

No. You should only have one firewall running on your PC. Stick with Comodo, and turn off Windows Firewall.
