Angry firewall on windows 95 preinstalled
If anyone can help with this let me know. I want to know if I am behind a firewall and how to get out from behind it. I have a nec ready comp. with windows 95 already installed. I have used my product recovery cd already

zarman,

Welcome to TSG

Why do you think your behind a firewall?
I would say that if you have a older PC with Windows 95 and you just did a product recovery you don't have a firewall.

Why did you use the product recovery CD?

To test your PC go here and run the Shields UP! test.

It will let you know if a firewall is running or not.

A firewall is really needed today just being online. You can get ZoneAlarm for free and it is one of the best.
