    AV and Firewall Suggestions for Linux

    I've been playing around with Linux lately on my PC, and I was curious as to the security requirements I should be considering. I am running a dual-boot setup (triple-boot if I can get XP to place nice :P ) so Linux has access to my NTFS drives. I set Linux up on a EXT3 formatted...

    no video in WMC (Vista Ultimate) when windowed...

    Sounds like a video issue. Have you updated your video/monitor drivers lately? Have you installed any new codecs (Media Player can do this automatically without prompting)? Check your windows update log to see if anything "came down the pipe."

    Just for laughs I tried the install on my Vista x64 box, the result: "Cannot install ZoneAlarm 7.1.078.000 on this computer. This computer has a 64 bit operating system and ZoneAlarm cannot install on this computer." :disgust: :thumbsdown:

    McAfee's New Beta

    Dual-Core Hotfix in Vista ?

    Vista doesn't have the same problems with dual core that XP had. Essentially, MS has tried to integrate everything they developed for XP (i.e. hot fixes) into Vista to prevent problems. Dual core drivers (X2) are native in Vista. When I set I my system everything was good to go out of the...

    Overclocked my GeForce 6800 GT. Now some games run slower

    You overclocked several components, any one of them could be contributing to the "stalls" you are experiencing. If you OCed your processor by bumping the FSB it could also be another system component contributing to the problem (ie PCI cards, hard-drives, etc..). Did you lock the PCI bus...

    Is there any reason to use a firewall other than the windows one?

    Which O/S (XP, XP SP2, Vista?) I ask as the Windows Firewall has improved greatly with each OS release (while SP2 is a service pack, the included firewall is very different from the original XP version). While it is better, there are still concerns. The XP firewalls had very limited...
