[QUOTE="JigglyWiggly_"]I am saying it blocks services and ports, that a worm could use to take advantage of, if you are saying it stops viruses itself I don't think that is right.Chickenesta
I've already explained in a previous post that it doesnt stop viruses in the same way an antivirus does, you're suggesting that somehow Windows firewall wouldnt protect against worm virsues spreading across a network???? wtf lol, the primary reason for running a firewall if you're already behind a hardware firewall is to stop internal threats, routers dont protect againstclient to client attacks,Im done here :) best go book yourself in for some MCP exams to go along with you CCNA lol
FFS you are being really really dumb. I just said, "it blocks ports and services" which is correct. A worm could take advantage of those, hence blocking them. I am not saying it scans for viruses.Also one more thing Windows firewall doesn't scan packets which you have seemed to completely have missed. Only SNORT can do that. I am speaking of packet sniffing, and intrusion, not a blasted worm. Virus infections in a company are rare, unless dumb IT staff(who use Windows on their servers)
