RE: How good is Vistas firewall

Vista's firewall is very good.

Just because it does not do popups with "allow" and "deny" for everything
does not mean it is not working. It knows what is what!

http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

Uninstall norton completely, and use Avast from the above link.
It is a low resource-using program, and is vista 32bit and 64bit compatible.
