Pls can anybody help me.
Having read http://www.geekstogo...;page=How_did_I (How did I get infected in the first place) after recently being infected with a vundo trojan. I have done everything this page recommends except upgrade my standard XP firewall to one of the following: Sygate, Kerio or ZoneAlarm.
However, since the page was written things have changed e.g. Sygate is no-longer free and has been merged with symantec who now incorporate the firewall in Norton. Kerio have an affiliation with McAfee and only do a free 30 day trial. ZoneAlarm has mixed reviews from excellant to rubbish!!
Therefore:
Does it still stand that XP Firewall is still as poor as it was and should be upgraded?
Is ZoneAlarm still a better replacement?
Can anyone recommend a better alternative firewall to replace XP firewall other than ZoneAlarm (Has to be FREE)?
Does anyone have any additional tips to prevent these 'nasties' from taking hold, which they'd like to share.
Many thanks
