Using Multiple Firewalls - RECOMMENDED OR NOT?
Hi, I use Windows Vista SP 2. Currently, I have Eset Nod32 Smart Security 4 installed. Should I disable/remove Windows Firewall so that only Nod32's firewall runs, or should I let both run?
Thanks for helping! |

You only need one software firewall, so disable the Windows one.

Yes, run services.msc, double-click Windows Firewall, click the Stop button and change the Startup Type to disabled to prevent the firewall running when you boot.
