    Don't worry about xp's pf, unless you are constantly turning it on it is OFF. You're better off with Sygate PF Pro 5.1 than Norton's. I know I've had both. If you can't get the pro Sygate, they have a free sygate. Just installed the free Sygate on a customers machine. For free it's pretty good.
