no, his provider sucks. managed to get me over 50.000 attempts to break into my computer in a month. they dont' supply firewalls and they dont' care much about it.... |
I fail to understand how it would be the provider responsability to see to the use of firewalls and PC protections... Unless you mean it in a way that would provide protection to the provider own servers?

it's not. that's why many in their network have infected PC.
But we have some providers that give you a nice little CD with Antivirus on and some free firewall. and explain you nicelly why that is good for you and stuff. So i will assume that they will also take care of dangers on their side. which they do. and i am connected elsewhere to that provider and i got like 70 attempts to break in out of which 0 were serious. also no problems with connection speed or anything similar. |
My "Holy Trio" is:
Opera SpyBot S&D Avast! Home Edition |
call me paranoid -
Spybot Adaware Zonealarm Windows Defender ( as ocasional scan ) Windows live safety scanner ( ocasionally ) Router with SPI and firewall Finjan secure browsing IE add on Secunia Software inspector and .. various other online scans on an occasional basis ( pc pitstop etc ) |
Hardware firewall + firefox + HijackThis. That is all.
