    Re: Outpost vs OnlineArmor: which one?

    Hello:

    First time poster...I was referred here by another message board. :)

    I installed Online Armor today and it made my computer soooooooo slow I had to uninstall it...is that normal that it would make the pages take at least two minutes to load and everything was hanging?

    THANKS.

    You shouldn't even be aware it's there. Did you uninstall a previous FW entirely, or are you trying to run 2 FW's at the same time?

    Hmmm... no, that's not normal :(

    I see you have posted over at our forum, so I will go answer you there to avoid clogging wilders with a 1-2-1 support thread-jacking...

    Only firewall I had was the one that came with Windows in the Control Panel...I had that turned off.

    THANKS for the help.
