windows firewall

[john_lef]

Hi,

Should I enable windows firewall even if I have Norton virus protection?

[RobbieBaron]

• Yes, if you only have Norton AV.
• No need if you have Norton Internet Security. That will manage the Firewall.

Thanks for your speedy reply.

Would this be the Norton security I downloaded to replace McAfee as instructed by BT?

Thank you

[RobbieBaron]

Yes, that'll be my 2nd.

Thanks, but, sorry what do you mean -  "that'll be my 2nd" . . ?

I think the Baron meant the second bullet point in his post.

You would be just as well protected by simply using Windows Defender and ditching Norton.

Thank you for your interest, "pottyperson".

Only when you've got the time and inclination, I would be interested to know why I " would be just as well protected by simply using Windows Defender and ditching Norton".

Thanks
