In a burst of bravado, I removed the bundled Norton from my new computer.
I know Robert has indicated that anti-virus software like Norton is
unnecessary (at least for him). I would like to know if any XyWriters have
been going without anti-virus software (even without ZoneAlarm) under XP.
Gibson Research (grc.com) showed all my ports are "stealthed" except port
113, which is "closed" and that is apparently no problem. But my system
failed Gibson's "LeakTest." Is there something I can set in XP to give
stronger firewall protection? I connect to the 'net through a router that has
a built-in firewall.
I'm not totally averse to getting ZoneAlarm, though in the past it has
created problems (or at least annoyances). Or perhaps there is some not
bloated virus protection software someone could recommend (Panda has gotten
bloated).
Your opinions and reports of your experiences welcomed.
