Vista firewall question

Post by broocya »

How do I get vista security to recognize my third part firewall? I was trying to arrange for two-way firewall protection in windows. I follow the steps in PCWorld march magazine. Once I change my setting, windows firewall block everything.I had to disable windows firewall in order to use a third-party firewall.It works fine, now when I check my firewall security, windsow does not detect it.

Please don't hijack unrelated threads, but start a new one.
General consensus is that you should not try to run two firewalls.
It's useless and can lead to interference between the two.
The Window Security centre recognizes a limited amount of third-party firewalls.
You just have to tell it that you have one and that it should stop complaining.
