TIPS.

• Only disable your firewall if you are doing something, such as hosting an FTP or sharing files from your computer, with which the firewall interferes. Turn the firewall back on when you are finished with these tasks so your computer remains protected.
• Disconnect your computer from the Internet if you don't need to be online to do what you need to do on your computer. This is the only way your computer can be 100 percent protected when the firewall is disabled.
• Use an anti-virus program to scan your computer at least weekly if you leave your firewall turned off on a regular basis. Your computer is more at risk to viruses without an active firewall, so you should use your anti-virus program frequently to remove any threats that may have infiltrated your computer.
