Beware Sify Users

[power]

if u configure windows properly then u dont have sacrifice all ur resources to ur firewall program . I used windows inbuilt ipsec policies in windows 2000 to block vulnerable ports completely and i never use ie so no prob of spyware . i dont even do windows update and still i never got a virus inside my pc . Just block ports Tcp 135-139 , udp 135-139 , dcom 1025 tcp/udp and udp 1026(messenger) and u are all set . This way ur resources arent sucked and u are well protected because ipsec is a part of os ... external firewall programs may crash sometimes but this wont . U can also block icmp completely using ipsec so no one can ping you .. Also u can block any protocol u want from secpol.msc

better install a Linux firewall between the internet and your PC. Ofourse get someone qualified enough to configure it. If you dont want linux hassles then install some firewall like Sygate.

it isnt always like someone is trying to access ur pc . All comps on network broadcasts netbios name request in background so u get so many conn attempts in firewall but if few pc's are infected with worms then also u will get same problem . Anyways just disable netbios completely and you are safe even with firewall not present . Go to grc.com and download WINDOWS WORMS DOORS CLEANER , a small prog that disable dcom/netbios/messenger and most services used by worms .
