Hi all you experts.

Am just about to go broadband. I cannot fit the latest Norton's
firewall on this machine (too little RAM). It it necessary to have some
kind of firewall to avoid spyware and other problems on my internet
banking, and if so can someone recommend one that fits in small RAM?

Thanks in advance

If you have Cable/DSL just get a NAT Router.
