[QUOTE=panais;697936]Yes, it is fine to run a software firewall along with the router's firewall. They should not confilct. I run Comodo firewall along with my router's firewall.I enable my router firewall and i have also enable comodo firewall,is that ok?
Or they are conflict each other?
Your security should be quite good with this setup.You can see all my security in the attachment.
I hope they are enough!
If you need help with setting up your router firewall, please feel free to ask. You want it to be in stealth mode with no open ports.
You can test your router security here: ShieldsUP Scroll down the web page and click on the ShieldsUP link. Run the first three tests. This will give you a good report of your internet security.
i quit using eset when it terribly failed to remove some usb drive viruses. Once upon a time, i was a die hard eset fan. Now I use avast!
Funny, im doing exactly the opposite, i got tired of avast internet security blocking and crashing itunes search function, so i uninstalled and im giving a try to eset smart security.
While usin smart security im getting this results:

So eset firewall is not enough, is it?
I don't get in to arguments over personal preferences. Dinesh was posting about a bad experience with ESET anti-virus, not the ESET firewall. Personally, I don't like security suites for several reasons; but that is just my opinion. I prefer stand alone programs. And there are many good free anti-virus and and firewall programs out there; I simply don't see a reason to waste money on purchasing a suite.
The short answer is no.So eset firewall is not enough, is it?
That is not because it is not good; it is because software firewalls can be hacked and gone around. Certainly software firewalls offer much more protection than no firewall. A hardware firewall built into a router and configured properly is much better than a software firewall. They are much more difficult to work around.
That said, I have both. But I use my software firewall to monitor outgoing connections.
hi , ESET is the best no one is like it its simply the the best i am also using it.
