yep, but if you turn that sucky firewall off, be sure to install zone alarm for ex. It's free and good.

Windows (XP) default firewall acts nothing like a real one, it's worthless. If it's vista, I don't know.

Yeah, Zonealarm is a pretty good program to use is you're strapped for cash or don't like buying stuff online ~No prems?~

But It's only good til the year of free virus protection wears off, then I suggest coupling Zonealarm with Avast!Anti-virus ~The ! isn't a typo~

Pretty good software for someone who, as I said, doesn't want to waste money.

I also suggest, if you're familiar with torrents, to torrent something.

Links to Zonealarm and Avast!Anti-Virus:
Zonealarm Free Edition: Firewall Freeware, Free Firewall Protection Software, Firewall Shareware: ZoneAlarm® Free Firewall Software.

Hope you like it, rep if you want.

Right-click My Computer and go to Properties, click Automatic Updates tab, then shut them off by pressing the button saying "Turn off Automatic Updates"

Then click Apply, then OK.
