Hi.
I am using WindowsXP. I have an internet connection that goes through a router with buildin firewall. Nonetheless, sometimes when I disable the router's firewall, I found logs of invalid access in system security log. I have seen logs of users I do not know and should have be attempting to log onto the XP as a user.
Is firewall that is build into a router good enought? Should we use a software firewall such as ZoneAlarm too?
Lastly, with regard to that XP problem, is there a way to protect against users attempting to connect?
Thanks,
Kuphryn
