I know this is off topic, but being a writer, I trust writers, and though all of you may not be tech savvy, I know that most of yall are.
I have a friend who recently got hacked and all of their computers (they were network sharing on windows 7) were raped. I don't know a lot about what virus software works best and what firewalls are best, but I found out that a lot of times if you have high speed internet your cable company may provide free softwars so you don't have to shell out that 80 bucks, and I found a free firewall here: http://www.zonealarm.com/security/en-us/zonealarm-data-lock.htm. It is called zonealarm and it sounds good, but does anyone else here know anything about it? When it comes to trying new things, I like to hear some feedback first.
What I have read is that it is easier to use than the winxp firewall.
Any techies in the house?
