Norton 2005 Internet Worm Protection (Firewall) or Windows XP native firewall?	Rob Nicholson	12-11-2004

I've recently upgraded NAV from 2004 to 2005. NAV 2005 comes with it's own
firewall - part of it's Internet Worm Protection facility. By default, NAV
2005 turns off the Windows XP firewall and enables it's own.

The question is - is one more secure than the other?

I only noticed this when re-enabling my LAN to help rebuild a friends PC and
noticed that the network connect (both to broadband & LAN) wasn't enabled.

Cheers, Rob.
