Anti-virus and Personal Firewall utilities

Thanks for the software suggestions.

Do I really need a firewall? I know the companies say I do but.. I use Norton AntiVirus 2003 with automatic update and keep Auto-Protect running all the time - except when I install a new program - learned about that the hard way :) - and it looks as though you check mail for viruses before sending.

If I install a firewall, will it affect anything else, for instance my dial-up or ftp connections? (Your link to ZoneAlarm went straight to the download page but I couldn't fond much on their site by way of FAQs)

Browser hijacking - software NOT to download

It’s increasingly common to hear of an Internet Explorer home page becoming stuck at some unwanted search directory or commercial web site, as the result of some malicious program taking control of a Windows PC. People can even be reluctant to report these ‘browser hijacks’ because of a number of associated pornographic links and pop-ups. Here is a DIY guide to cleaning up the mess after a hijack or spyware attack.

Dialup Networking (Windows 95 only)

This is the prefered method for making a connection to the internet with Windows 95. It is notoriously difficult to configure! So see our [url=http://www.gn.apc.org/support/win95/connect.html]instructions[/url]. Click here to download --> [url=http://www.gn.apc.org/support/download/msdun13.exe]Microsoft Dialup Networking 1.3 (2.3MB)[/url] (only needed for Windows 95) or the older [url=http://www.gn.apc.org/support/download/w95ws2setup.exe]Windows Winsock Update (also known as Microsoft Dialup Networking 1.2 (900 KByte)) [/url]which fits onto a floppy disk.

How to install Tor

Hello Folks,

I found some information on anonymous browsers here a few weeks ago, but can't find it now.

I downloaded Tor, and found I'd opened a file that vanished into the system somewhere without me having a clue where it is. A search won't find it- it just stops responding.

How do I make this thing work, please? I've just installed Firefox. This is said to have a facility for anonymous browsing but I can't find it. Or is there a better anonymous browsing system, please?

onspeed blocking me out

I have had onspeed since August and recently it has blocked me out and is not working, what should I do?

Operating Systems

Red Hat Linux 9 is very good as a work desktop. It's very stable and doesn't slow down over a period of months unlike most version of Windows (2K and XP).

Very easy to install as well.
