until now i have resisted the need for a firewall as i am aware of the difficulties firewalls can give to file sharing ect, plus i have a home network with 5 comps, and the last time i tried a firewall i couldnt figure out how to config it so itdidnt block the other comps
my network is as follows
adsl modem connects to my comp via ethernet
a second ethernet card in my comp connects to my 100mb 5 port switch, and all the other comps connect to this switch
so if you run a similar system and use a firewall, or if ya know what to use and which is best plz advise me as i dont wanna go through the same crap as last time
