Using four firewalls is counter-productive. It'll do more harm than good, and most likely block a lot of things you don't want to be blocked. Uninstall all of them and use Windows Firewall. It'll block 99% of virus' getting in. You just need to be smart and not click on links that say "FREE WAREZ HERE!", that links to virus.exe or such and such.
Windows Firewall.
Avast.
I've disabled Avast auto protect for 8 months now, and I havn't had a single virus.
Common sense is all that's needed.
Oh... wait...

I use F-Secure(includes antivirus and firewall) and Norton(includes firewall ONLY), and I also have a hardware firewall with router and switch, box.
Has worked OK so far.
Also tested it so, that theyre not interfering with each other, and ran a couple security tests, which couldnt even ping my computer because the ports were stealthed.

Well that ssure didn't happen... ran into Goth in his Brood at Sag Hotha while myself in a CD and Mephilo in a Assualt Dessie were chasing Buzzcox down after he nuked one planet and gassed another with Bios'. I went after the UNCLOAKED Brood and as soon as i saw the first shots hit i get a /y screaming at me to leave him alone and go away.
Dude, you are in a uncloaked Brood in the middle of a free fire zone with enemies all over the place and you are going to whine about people shooting at you while you are building? Heck.. shoot back! You never once fired at me and you jumped at 67% Armour.
You, Goth, have NO excuse for yelling at me.... do NOT do it again... If you do not like being shot at in the MV then either stay cloaked 24/7 or stay out of the MV... I am getting tired of it very quickly...
and no excuseses about lag.. i got a 1.4ghz Celeron with 512MB of PC100 RAM and a 256K DSL that actually runs a 142k BPS on a good day and yet I seldom if ever have lag... some build lag at times but 99% lag free in combat.
and to borrow a nice term...
Nuff Said...

And that was 99% un-needed 0.o
