Internet Security?




Earlier I ask this question. "I ran an security test on my computer and was told this. Your computer may now be functioning as an Internet Server with neither your knowledge nor your permission. Everyone wrote back telling me to check viruses and spyware and so on. Still turned up with nothing. I’m thinking what is happening is ICMP Pinging my computer is accepting incoming pings. is there a way for be to block or stealth. Windows Xp "updates installed" behind a NAT router. Installed firewall and AV. Test was run and GRC website. & symantec’s website. both came up with the same results. Thank You everyone who’s tried to help out so far. I really thank you for your time.

Internet Security!?




I am using Avira Anti-Virus Personal Edition (free edition) , Zone Alarm , Spybot -Search & Destroy, and Windows Defender. Avira im using to get rid of viruses, Zone alarm for a firewall, and spybot and windows defender for spyware. I am currently running on windows xp. If i use all these programs to protect my computer will it slow down my computer? are these programs good enough to protect my computer? and lastly, what are the best combinations of internet security that i should use?

I’ve been using Comodo Firewall for over 2 years now and has performed exceptionally well. Lately, i’ve discovered that my firewall version is outdated (since late 2007). I barely checked for updates, and recently i’ve found out that they have a new version. A firewall coupled with an antivirus. I’d like to know whether Comodo Internet Security is good or not.

I have norton internet security 2009 and I was wondering how to make an exception for my firewall? It’s been so long since I’ve had to do it and I’m sure it’s right under my nose knowing my luck but I could really use the help.

I’m using Verizon’s Internet Security Suite which contains anti virus and anti spyware along with a firewall. I wish to set the system for scheduled scanning. I’m using Windows xp.

1) How often should I scan for viruses and spyware?
2) A scheduled scan won’t take place if my pc is off.
3) Will it run if the pc is in hybernation mode?
4) Any drawbacks to leaving my pc in hybernation mode when I’m not using it instead of closing down all pc stuff
4) If yes to question #3 ~ what are the drawbacks?
