AVG Firewall caused issues with homegroups/sharing
Hi everyone, this is my first post here..
I have two PCs, each with Windows 7 Ultimate installed, that I've been puzzled on how to set up to share files. Both also have AVG 8.5 suites installed, and after reading some posts on here, I tried turning the AVG firewalls off.. This worked great, as I was able to share to and from either PC!! That makes me very happy..
My question now, is this: What is a good firewall to use that WON'T give sharing issues? I turned Windows firewall back on, on both PCs.. Is this adequate? If anyone has a better firewall suggestion that doesn't give the same problems AVG does (had issues with streaming to Xbox 360 too), I would love to hear it!
Thanks in advance!
Nick
