Welcome.

What antivirus product are you using? It is my hunch it includes a firewall and is disabling the Windows Firewall.

I have installed Kaspersky Internet Security v9.x and PC Tools firewall Plus v6.x on my PC

The Kaspersky Internet Security suite has a firewall. It should disable the Windows Firewall. You do not need two firewalls running at the same time.

I question the reasoning behind keeping a firewall fully on when not connected to a network?

 

[Frostmourne]

The firewall is on by default, network on or off - would you want to manually enable the firewall everytime you came online?

.
In that case you have three firewalls on your system. As noted in the Windows Action Center running more then one firewall at the same time can cause conflicts.

I uninstalled other firewalls dear Victek. Now i only have Windows firewall that is default on windows 7 and KIS 9.x that i have installed it. you are telling me the windows 7 firewall must be off if there is another firewall on my PC?

well what does action center-security says....windows firewall or kaspersky...see the screen shot

dear thathagat, it says Two or more firewall running at the same time can cause conflicts with each other. i got it. i should turn off one of them! but which one is better to be off? Windows firewall or KIS ?
and spyware section at action center says windows defender and KIS is active now and you should turn off one of them. which one you preffer to be off? KIS or windows defender?

I would use the free Microsoft Security Essentials, Malwarebytes in conjuction with a Firewall. That is possibly the best combination for Windows 7.

no issue leaving kis and defender on

well guess you don't need the parental control or maybe you do
turn on the anti banner it will give you relatively ad free browsing, in settings-threats and exclusions do tick other and monitor all ports in network setting these are all off/unticked by default

 

[cyletech]

Sorry brother, I did not understand you. you are telling me that i untick all of them but anti-banner or ... ? can you show me with a screenshot? if you do not have KIS, no problem. you can utilize my screenshot that put on post #13 .

 

[thathagat]

Sorry brother, I did not understand you. you are telling me that i untick all of them but anti-banner or ... ? .

NO i mean you can just untick parental control the rest are very important and should always remain on.

 

[cyletech]

So what about spyware? how can i turn off KIS spyware. you told me that KIS spyware should be off! right?

Well buddy i said it is okay to run kis and windows defender together...no need to disable either...
