Hi, guys! It is true that firewalls modify internet connection settings and make them work worst as days pass by?

Nah. As long as I know, they don't touch anything. It will instead help you speed your internet if you block some programs that are wasting your bandwidth. ;)

When configured properly, it would make your connection better.

:lol: He's a little idiot. He panics when flashing a BIOS, for example. I have to do that job for him.

BTW: is there a tutorial that teach how to configure Outpost Firewall or a firewall?

Version 7 is available. That bug has been fixed. I'm using Win7 x64.

Thanks for the info dude ! There isn't the news on the frontpage.

I waited a long time because always had bugs with 6.x version, so I used CIS.

But now, CIS disappoints me.

Have not been using third party firewall for a long time.

But if given a choice...Zone Alarm Free.

stopped using 3rd party firewalls a long time ago, and rely on the basic XP Firewall
