ITS-VP Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 Hi all, First, i´d like to thank you everybody out here! When i start to follow the forum, i had hard time to overclock (can´t pass 2.5ghz and no more than 260mhz on the RAM!) Second: I have a question about firewall: I´m using windows XP64 and tried to use the NVIDIA firewall (from the lasted drivers - the 6.83) and i´m having problems with it. It works fine for some time, but the connection simply stops after some hours and i need to reboot to get the connection back to work (emule, bittorrent and firefox). I see that problem only on the NVIDIA NForce Networking Controler rather than on the Marvel Yukon NIC port. But i think the nvidia firewall doesn´t work on the Marvell. So, here´s my question, after read that most of users don´t like nvidia firewall (and many recommend not to use it): Does anyone knows a good Windows XP 64 firewall? Thx for reading, Have a nice day!

foxbat1126 Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 There is not much choice for 64bit firewall. I have Xp64 installed in one of my hard disk and boot from it from time to time. I've installed Tiny Firewall 64 and it seems to do the work. You can download it from their site and try it. The trial version is for 30 days.
