    its shit mate , uninstall it , and get one of the following , and read some stuff on firewall and what they do ect

    good firewalls
    zone alarm
    norton
    outpost

    and a few others , but look for tutorials on how to set them up and use them , as its the setup, if incorrect that will slow your comp surfin down

    No it's not. EZ firewall is crap. Ez antivirus is moderate.

    Yeah, that's what I noticed when I installed it from the CD Microsoft provided. I quickly uninstalled it and installed ZoneAlarm Pro instead.
