Firewall/Antivirus

Please accept my humble apologies for not understanding the art of using two firewalls profesionally for money. If you find "profesional" to have two firewalls on a windows box, you're out of luck: this forum is not for you.
Before "posting stupid post" i'll ask mr Google for his permission. Now, move your rude sarcasm some other direction.

Gah, this makes me sick ...

On the one hand, we have Strafe, who may be more than slightly annoying at times (although in a very good-natured manner), and on the other hand, we have this other guy who we don't really know ...

Strafe's going on like he usually does, making fun of someone else (like I usually do), and burek doesn't seem to get it ...

Strafe doesn't seem to understand this "great concept" that burek is proposing, and instead of explaining it to him, burek is acting like a 12-year old "scr1pt k1dd13 haxx0r", *obviously* much smarter and "l337er" than Strafe can ever be ...

And instead of politely discussing the practical benefits of having two firewalls (which there probably aren't, at least not to your argument of "everything is exploitable"; most "h4xx0rz" use pre-designed tools, not writing their own hacks by hand), burek is content to flame away at Strafe (and make himself look like a total jerk-off at the same time)...

----------

I guess that burek is older than Strafe doesn't really matter; I have the intense feeling that Strafe is quite a bit more advanced intelligence-wise (well, most invertebrates seem to have more brains than burek Mad ).

As much as I made fun of Strafe before, he understands that it's all in good humor; burek seems to be too dense to understand this "humor" thing -- perhaps it's out of his grasp (as well as "manners" or "brains" seem to be as well)?

----------

P.S. Your signature is extremely juvenile, asshole.

Special Request to Admins: If burek stays, I'd like to request a :disgust: or a :dumbfuck: icon that burek has to use with every post, just so we know it's bullshit and can skip over; if we don't, chances are we'll all get stupider.

I also know that I will probably be reprimanded for this post; at the same time I can't believe that this guy is being such a dick, and feel compelled to express my distast for him ...

Burek if you don't want to continue the flame war. Remove the signature or the admins will do it by force. You said you don't want flames again, here's a start:
1. Again remove the offending signature. 2. Don't post more of this nonsense on this thread since it's far off-topic. (This is also towards the other users.)

I use norton corprate here, the auto update is pretty cool - the server takes care of it all for you and just gives the appropriate updates to all the clients.

My anti-adware\virus and other internet crap filters of choice are:

-Ad-Aware AND Webroot

-Norton Antivirus 2003 (I got it for $8 so hey...)

-Zone Alarm (SUPER manually configured, and turned on all of the highest
security settings)

- MsConfig (NOTE: While this is not an adware or virus app, it allows you to
stop most undesired programs from running at boot up; just go to "Run" and
type msconfig in)


That and a knowledge of what not do download, and what sites to stay away from... *cough* pr0n *cough*

used to use kaspersky av 2005 but that always used to scan in \system volume information and took ages. now im back to using norton av 2005 and im too lazy to get a 3rd party firewall so im using the SP2 one

as for spyware im using spybot, if u test spybot u will see adaware is a ripoff
