[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 540785, member: 49539"] Two questions occur to me after reading the latest posts in this thread: 1. Is MS SE a sufficicent anti-virus for users who, like myself, browse the internet on their HTPCs, or am I better off sticking with my current solution (AVG free 9.0)? 2. I have the MS (XPSP3) Firewall running. Is this really contribution anything? My "Full Stealth" rating from GRC is probably due to my ADSL router's firewall. What can I gain by using any SW firewall, especialy MS's? IIRC, MS only blocks incoming traffic, something which is probably already done by the HW firewall in the router. TIA for any comments.
