Hi Everyone,
I decided that my firewall would be Outpost. I've read on Wilders here that it is very commonly used and its very good. I came across Paranoid2000's guide which is at: http://www.outpostfirewall.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9858 and before I proceed in doing the steps and so forth, I want to say what my home network consists of and see if you all can help me decide if I will likely or not likely have problems. After taking so much time in doing this, I'd like to find out ahead of time.
I am on a home network with 5 other PCs that access the Internet through a Linksys USB card. The main PC is hard wired. My ISP is Comcast...
My other question is, do I have to do the guides instructions for every PC on the network for max. protection?
Thank you in advance, hope everyone can provide me with their thoughts.
Brian
