Add an Extra Free Firewall to Windows- Comodo

Comodo Firewall can be used with Windows Firewall with XP and other operating systems adding additional security. The firewall also will check for and update itself with user prompts.

The firewall can be set for different security levels and can be integrated with an antivirus. If unknown executables start Comodo will warn users and tell which application is starting and whether it is a known "safe application" or "unknown application". Users may select to allow or block the executable.

Comodo Firewall runs in the task bar where internet traffic can be blocked with the icon in the taks bar and to select "Block All" in case of suspected malware that may be downloading through hacked or rogue sites.

Dallas Computer Service recommends Comodo Firewall in addition to Windows Firewall for additional security.
