Permanent windows firewall

My computer says I have windows with advanced security firewall. Sometimes I get the message 'allow definitions Windows Defender detect the latest harmful or unwanted software and prevent it from running on your computer' However the firewall was arrested because she clashed with norton internet security firewall. Recently my norton security has failed so I tried to relight my fire wall of windows, I installed the latest updates but when I turn on the fire wall it turns off again, how can I light my fire windows permanently?

Hello

you need to uninstall Norton because it always works, even if the subscription is completed

AND replace it with an other anti-virus

  • [Moved] Windows Firewall 8

    As the native firewall application in Windows is poor, I used 3 third-party solutions for many years. Now that I am on Windows 8, one big annoyance is that firewall Windows is activated at startup, even if to be OFF.  Whenever I reboot, I have to go and turn it off because it interferes with firewalls superior running manually.

    Firewall Windows makes my netBIOS visible to others, and also some service ports are marked as hidden, but not invisible. I don't want my system to be seen by others and the Windows Firewall is simply not enough good.

    How do I permanently disable it in Windows, except by checking the usual boxes?

    Update: everything is sorted now after I installed a 3rd party firewall and antivirus. I use two antivirus programs, which is ClamAV for Windows or ClamWin.  It is not a real-time scanner but it is excellent on the scheduled scans, analysis also send them.

    The other firewall + antivirus will not be disclosed here, but suffice it to say that all my service ports are now in full STEALTH mode, it has disabled Windows Firewall and I'm a happy man at the moment.

    This should be a year of learning for us all, as it is commonly accepted that the Windows Firewall is good enough. Turned out to be incorrect.

  • Firefox 28 not listed in the Windows Firewall Exceptions

    I am running SP3 Windows XP Prof, Firefox 28 and Windows Firewall.

    I recently noticed that Firefox is 'slow' loading and connection to Web sites.

    I checked the 'Exceptions' list in the Windows Firewall, but Mozilla Firefox did not appear. Why Windows Firewall application doesn't have access during the installation of Firefox? Internet Explorer was not either and that my original browser browser and becomes 'slow', that's why I changed to Firefox.

    Moreover, since 'Add' and 'give permission' for Firefox, it runs a lot faster.

    Thanks John!

    Hello

    Can someone tell me what my problem is? When I try to enter my WF in the Panel, he won t let me do that. A message just because of an unidentified problem, windows cannot display only my windows firewall settings.

  • Why my Windows Firewall keep turn off briefly?

    I just launched a recovery on Pavilion Media Center TV m7470n desktop my father, which has restored XP Media Edition 2005 SP2. I then installed SP3 and use Windows Update to get the latest updates. The system now works fine, but from time to time, I get a popup notification that says that the Windows Firewall is disabled. The popup balloon quickly and when I enter the Security Center Windows Firewall appears as on. I did a full scan with Microsoft Security Essentials and I also tried Trend Micro HouseCall and RootkitBuster. None of the scans showed no threat, but I'm still uncomfortable with the ball of myesterious to appear several times a day. Someone saw?

    Now, I think the HP software that updates the computer was responsible. I tried to get the updates by running the software myself, but he says there is no update available. After a day or two, however, he popped up and told me that several updates were waiting to be installed. After you install the updates from HP, the problem with the Windows Firewall stopped.
