Hot Tip
Firewalls can be hacked if they aren't configured properly.  Be certain that only computers you want access to your PC are in the "Allowable " list.  Use login and password routines when sharing out folders (directories) on your computer.  Make sure your Firewall software is kept up to date.

Most Internet Security software comes with everything you need to protect your computer. However, if not configured properly, it can prevent you from performing certain tasks on your PC. Contact Us to learn more.
