FEATURE ARTICLE - Understanding Firewalls
by Otis F. Cooper
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Computer viruses can and will destroy data on your PC.
When on the internet our computers can be accessed
by hackers who want nothing more than to either copy
certain data or destroy contents on our systems.

Networks are systems consisting of 2 or more computers
connected together and having access to the internet.
The internet is simply a very large network of computers
that share data around the globe.

Firewall software are used on networks as a means of
keeping them free of uninvited quests.And firewalls
can be either software or hardware,such as a router.
Firewalls resides on your hard drive and acts as guard
between your computer and the internet.

This program inspect incoming and outgoing data to
be sure nothing is neither entering or leaving your PC
unless you've authorized it.If incoming data looks
suspicious,the firewall denies its entry and the same
goes should unauthorized information try to leave
your computer.

We keep hackers out of our computers by installing
McAfee Firewall.Version 4.0 costing about $40.00
contains a security check that examines your security
settings for any loose ends.

Their Intrusion Detection System detects common
attacks and strange activity on your system.And
the personal protection feature prevents others
from tampering with your settings by offering you
password protection.

We found the software easy to install and it allow
you to immediately check for the latest updates and
patches so that you have the best hacker protection.
You can configure McAfee Firewall to load at bootup
or start manually if you're not going online right away.

These are just part of the many awesome features of
McAfee Firewall 4.0 and you can view or download our
short video clips to get a peek at this software.If you
want to take a good long look at this software,its been
added to our build your own pc video.

If you are in business on the Internet or just surf the
internet often,you should seriously consider investing
in personal firewall software.Windows XP users can
activate their built in firewall software by clicking Start,
My Network Places,and then the View Network
Connection link.Next right click the icon for your internet
connection and click Properties.Select the advanced
tab and check the protect my computer and network
checkbox.Then click apply and you're done.

If you don't have firewall software but would love to
try it free for 30 days,download McAfee's trial version
or you can rush over to Surf Secret and download
their trial version.It is free for 30 days which is more
than enough time to get to understand how firewalls
operate.If you find it useful,you can purchase it for
just $40.00

In either case,protect your computer to the maximum
by installing both anti virus and firewall software.Even
though Windows XP contains firewall software,it has
been suggested to purchase a more powerful utility.
Enjoy your computer to the fullest,with others enjoying
it without you knowing it.Install your firewall software
as soon as possible.
