  Email to a friend



Windows XPAnyone who is exchanging files over the internet should be aware by now that having a personal firewall (or better yet, a hardware firewall) properly installed to monitor both their incoming and outbound communication to the rest of the world is a must.

To aid a personal firewall in protecting your pc, antivirus software is essential. Especially if you download a lot of files from the internet and wish to combat against picking up a nasty virus.

I have gathered together a list of the more reputable personal firewalls / antivirus software products and links to download or buy. Choosing which one is right for you is really a case of personal preference coupled with trying a few to see which meets your own specific requirements.

Some handy tutorials also to better educate yourself and help you decide on which protection you require.
