| Hello Mike,
|
| May I quote your post?
|
| "I have no knowledge of how you connect to the internet but if using ADSL
| or cable the very first thing I would do would be to use a router even if
| only using a single PC. Enable NAT (Network Address Translation) on the
| router and this will provide a very effective firewall, so good in fact
| that this no longer becomes a major issue with the OS however if you want
| both belt and braces suitable firewalls commonly used that work reasonably
| well with Win Me are early versions of Kerio, formerly Tiny, (v2.1.5 works
| well with Win Me)
| and Zone Alarm (versions up to and including 6.1.744.001)"
|
| From the setup forum in answer to Tony1966. It is still the last post

| Thanks, Mike.

| | Ben,
| |
| | Out of curiosity what configuration error did I mention in a previous
post
| | that you picked up on? It's not as if I often post about networking and
| | the like having as I do enough odd networking problems of my own
although,
| | admittedly not with Win Me nor with my router.
| |
| | Cheers,
