    Is this possible and would there be potential for a major clash?

    I know they are pretty much similar in what they do and that overlap would be extensive, but has anyone tried to run them together? Did they clash or did they get on together. I really like the way Gewall informs the user what's going on, plus it alerts to network connection's which DW doesn't.

    I believe that DW will have oubound control also before too long. I don't see any advantage to running both at the same time. I would think that could be a potential mess.

    Well the responses so far remind me of that film about the big shark. What was the famous line? "Whatever you do, don't go in the water!"

    Think I'll pass on the combo. Appreciate the advise.

    I'd say a smart choice.
    That combo just sounds like trouble.
