    If using Shadow Defender necessary to use a firewall ... or not? (Xp SP3 - perhaps in this case: windows firewall is OK?)

    Windows Firewall is fine but it's best to be behind a router also! If not you can use one of many free firewalls just look in the firewall section! You can check to how well protected as is https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 and click Proceed and then click All Service Ports!

    Your good then with Windows Firewall and Router with your settings! ;) I use Look'n'Stop firewall with Router because I want to see what apps want access to the Internet! :thumb:
