Will be desktop PC powered. Both have native resolution of 1920x1080, 100,000 contrast ratio. I assume that the 32" HDTV LG monitor has an HD tuner? Will be viewing multiple (3-4) letter sized pages for business. Read that one needs a 4 foot viewing distance from the 32" monitor?. If...

I understand that running Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), Windows Firewall is turned on by default. My Windows Firewall must be turned on each and every time I boot into XP Pro. The Firewall is thus disabled when I remove power to my PC. Is this a sign of insidious malware? When I boot...

SP2 is installed and 3 tabs show on the FW. General, exceptions and Advanced. Cannot find a FW "Default in the areas of any of these tabs. Is there anything under Services or StartUp using msconfig that should be enabled to activate FW as default? Ive deactivated some services and start up...

Every time I boot into Windows Xp Pro, the Windows Firewall radio button is "OFF". I check the box "ON" for Windows Firewall and check "NO exceptions" and when I turn off my PC and then boot the next time into WIN XP, the Windows Firewall is again "OFF". How Can I keep Windows Firewall ON all...
