I didnt know it existed. Is this a free firewall or do I need to pay and subscribe? Hope you dont mind answering my questions. Thanks, Take care. Vickie

Since I am not a computer expert, I have sent an email to my computer tech asking him to tell me which program activates this firewall in XP. I don't expect to hear from him until at least Monday, so please be patient. I believe I have it and know how to activate it; however, I want to make sure before I send it along. Lois
