Firewall question? Norton and comodo?

Question

i downloaded comodo firewall becuz even though i have Norton internet security 4 some reason i can't access the internet with norton "personal firewall" on. i tried to configure it but nothing works so i gave up and turned norton's personal firewall off>>but i have been bombarded with intrusion alerts from norton.>its blocking it but still....

anyway, so i downloaded comodo and its gettin sort of annoying but i was wondering if its safe 4 me to have 2 firewalls ( i have norton's firewall but it is off (personal firewall- off), and i am using comodo.

also 4 some reason, usually when the personal firewall is off there's a huge X on norton but surprisingly now, even though its off (firewall) there's no X> only a secure star?? wth??

Answer 1

No having two firewall is the same as having two antivirus.  You will have serious conflict with your system.  Actually neither one of your choices are any good.

You can download the free version of Zone Alarm free for home personal use and you will get exceptional protection from incoming rogue packets and protection of your personal data leaving your system without your permisison.

http://www.zonealarm.com  Look on the webpage under home, open and you will find the freee version and the payed version.

I have used the free version for home for over ten years and never has one rouge packet entered my computer.. Plus I use GRC leak test every week and my firewall is 100% leak proof.
