Hello everyone - I'm barely PC literate so please bear that in mind. I've been happily using Zonealarm on this PII, W98 machine for some time and it's worked fine in conjunction with Avast anti-virus.

My other PC is a 1 year old XPSP2 version which I'm told has its own firewall which appears to hide away in the background. Question: is the XP firewall as good as Zonealarm and, if not, how do I disable and replace it?

Any feedback/advice gratefully received !
