I have 2 questions:
1 i got a message from the comodo firewall telling me that a trusted file
wants to acces ipremove.exe. I cannot find any info about the ipremove.exe on
the whole internet.. anybody familiar with this>

2: Is the windows (vista) firewall indeed now also blocking as well incoming
as outgoing traffic. This info i got from a dutch website and i donot know if
that info is corect.
Does this make if the info is correct the firewall trustable enough or do i
still need another one>?

Somehow i can hardly believe that windows creates a firewall and that that
then is not working good enough and that one then needs to use another one..?

Other question (sorry it is all about this specific firewall thing): Can the
firewall of windows work together with another one?

Thank you for your answers,

Jerry

First thing you should check is:
Are you really talking about ipremove.exe or about lpremove.exe (the last one
is with an L not a capital i !); the last one is a regular windows module.
Then check wether your system has a ipremove.exe somewhere on it's disks; if
it has rename it to a non-executable name and see what happens; the module was
lastly seen in mid 2007 and appeared to do neither usefull nor malware stuff.
After that tell us what happened.

He, thank you, i am 99 procent sure that it's indeed the Lremove.exe.
I cannot verify because i typed the text here again as it's not possible to
copy a textline from out of that comodo firewall boxthing.
I am feeling ok, i trust that i got no trouble.

ps, any change that you can also answer my second question about what i can
expect of the windows firewall?

Thank you,
Jerry

Provided that you only give access to known processes, the vista firewall
should be sufficient (it is much better than the xp one). The problem is in
the word 'known' ; how much does the average user know, and when will he tire
from finding out?
Do make sure to run a find on ipremove.exe for your entire system; better sure
than sorry.

i gave order to the firewall to block all.
i think i understand you.
i'll do a complete search for the ipremove.exe allthough i got the idea that
it might be possible for a virus to not show up in searches like that..?
Jerry

ps any idea why the links i get in my mailbox from microsoft linkin probably
to here as they are notifications of your reply, why they donot work, when i
click them i always get an emty page.
