The Windows XP firewall contains spyware, and if someone was seriously thinking of breaking into your computer, he/she would have no trouble at all. Conclusion: turn it off, and get ZoneAlarm.

Better yet, get Mandrake Linux 9.1 (http://www.linuxiso.org/distro.php?distro=29).

WHy should we question whether or not Microsoft is doing a good job? This is all speculation and it spreads misinformation. Microsoft employees and designers are trained to do what they do, so just trust them!!

People also said in colonial times to trust the British, they have our best interests in mind.

People also said to trust Japan, they would never attack us unprovoked.

At least they can spell.

"The people who use Windows basically are sheep. They're open for attack and they're clueless."

Sheeps was a particularly amusing misspelling. Plus the fact that when you have such a rift as between Linux, Mac, and Windows users, there's generally sheep on all sides.

I think he was being sarcastic, and besides.  ZoneAlarm?  What, you don't like connection speed or CPU resources free?

The inbuilt firewall is so bad, it even interferes with Microsoft products like Windows Messenegr

Who cares if it interferes with Messenger?  Who uses that POS?  Get Trillian...It's better.  Cerulean Studios Homepage (http://www.ceruleanstudios.com)

gaim kicks the ass off of trillian, and gaim has the twin benefits of being truly open source, and not being begware like Trillian ("Remember Trillian is free, oh please mister, spare us some gruel, we have to feed our hungry children"...)
