norton internet worm protection?

[Felecha]

What can that be? norton internet worm protection? It says it recommends to turn off Windows Firewall and use norton instead

I dunno but I have worm protection on NAV2005 and it works.

I was thinking about its saying that it would turn off the firewall. I have just begun to understand what firewalls do, and I presume that if it takes over the duty it does the duty as well or better

Windows firewall is not very good, I would recommend using the norton AV worm protection one. (it also uses less CPU and memory).
In addition, if you have a home router, I would suggest using that one in addition to the norton AV, since it is hardware and much faster.
