    Your router provides firewall protection, so the need is not the same
    as if you had no a router. There are some who say you need to no.
    all firewall software.

    But my opinion is that you would be a lot safer if you have run a
    router software, and since there is little reason not to, I
    recommend that you do.

    Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP

    I agree.

    @OP Windows XP (SP2 and above), Vista, 7 and 8 all have active firewall software by default.

    There is no need of any 3rd party firewall.

    Some users like running programs such as ZoneAlarm because it warns him from the processes that use the network, and then there is the possibility to deny/allow it on the spot, or deny/allow forever. There may be slight discomfort in the installation, but once it's for all your programs, and then it really can work in silent mode.

    Microsoft Firewall simply leave everything default, but they can be configured manually to block anything outgoing or incoming.

  • How can you find your wep or wpa key to go on the internet I have a linksky route

    on the internet, computer wife XP runng had no problem, then when it turned on today that it asks for the wep or wpa key and I don't know what it is.

    Hi WILLIAMBERGEN,

    In a wireless network, the WPA key is a password that protects the network against outside intrusion. If a wireless router is configured with WPA encryption, you need the WPA key for access to the network and to make changes to your network settings

    We will check if the following is useful.

    a. open your web browser. In the address bar, type http://192.168.1.1 and press to enter. It is the default IP of many wireless routers. If this does not load a web page, see the manual of your router to the IP address of the configuration.

    b. on the screen that appears, you will be asked to enter your username and password. If you do not know your user name and password, try the default name of the user and the password of your router.

    c. If you are unable to log in or search for the user name and password of your router, reset the router.

    d. in your router settings, look for a "safety" or "wireless security" tab open this tab and the WPA key should be displayed.

    You can contact the support of router for more information.

I get this message when installing - "you are not allowed to change the settings for this printer. If you need to change the settings, contact your system administrator.

    CNET is infamous for the grouping of things in its downloads as much a / v programs report as junk (I went through the same thing using eSet NOD32 has / v).  I seem to remember that if you ignore the warning and download the exe file and then use a tool like the free 7-zip to extract only the file necessary to run the program you want, you can work around the problem.

    Hello

    I seem to be having problems when you try to install a program on my Windows 7 that allows to launch on my Windows XP and Windows Vista. I used the tool to solve compatibility problems and selected these settings in the CONFIGURATION file, but nothing seems to work the error message I get is as follows:

    "This version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are using. Check your computer's system information to see if you need a x 86 (32 bit) or x 64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher. »

    Is it possible to set my computer to allow this program to run successfully? Any solution would be greatly useful.

    Hello Rdforbe,

    The problem is a software that was created for Windows 95, 98, and Windows XP has no way to work correctly with an operating system that didn't even exist when the software was written. However, the error message you get normally means that you have a 32-bit software that you are trying to install on a 64-bit system.

    To find out if your computer is running 32-bit Windows or 64-bit, follow these steps:
    System opened by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click System.
    Under system, you can view the system type. This will describe if you have 32-bit or 64-bit.

    You can also try compatibility mode.

    If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

    Use the following steps:

    (1) right click on the program

    2) click Properties

    3) click on the Compatibility tab

    (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

    Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

    If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.
