Firewall And Panda Titanium Unable
Apr 10, 2008
I don't know if this is the right place for this or not, but I can'tget any help out of Panda at all, so i'm kind of grasping right now.... I use Vista Ultimate with Panda Titanium as my AV/Firewall. Panda is causing my IE to sometimes lag 40 seconds in opening up pages. On average, it's about 60 percent of the pages I open that lag this much. pages that run ads and such are pretty much a given. I run the same panda AV on my XP machine and it doesn't lag this bad. And if I turn off Panda, pages load up without delay. So it is definately Panda causing the problem.... or is it Vista?.....
I'm not sure what exactly I'm after except to somehow change the situation. Does anybody else use panda with the same results? or do other panda users have no lag? Is windows capable of protecting itself with it's own security measures? [probably asking for it with that question....] I know of plenty of AV packages, are there other suggestions about what might be causing the problems or places I might check for a remedy to the slowdown? Panda is, i suppose, uninterested in helping since they won't respond to my tech support inquiries. Either this is the way it is supposed to be, so they don't other, or well, i don't know. but i'm tired of the delays. it's too frustrating having to wait this much time for pages to load.

I got a couple of viruses in the last month, even though I had Norton anti-virus on my system and AVG – both were installed on my system by someone else. I am looking at anti-virus programs, I want to pay cuz my experience with free software has not been all that good. A good friend recommended Panda anti-virus, and some forums also listed it as ones they liked, as well as I found some good reviews of Cyberdefender.
I liked that Cyberdefender seems to be a more complete package, covering anti-virus, trojans, spyware, id theft protection. Panda did seem easy to use though. Panda doesn’t seem as good to me, but lots of people seemed to like it. I checked CNET for reviews, and they rated AVG very high, but my experience was not so good.....

we have Vista Home Premium on my sons laptop and just put Mcafee desktop firewall on. When I try to access the firewall settings I get the message 'If you are using FUS, disable it'. How do I disable it? or do I need to?

Just installed a Creative X-FI titanium and worked perfectly in Vista 64 bit. I had to use the PCIE x4 slot as the X1 slot would not fit on the motherboard due to the heat sinks. It really did make a huge difference in the sound quality from the on board sound.

Windows Vista Basic sp1. Im using a 3rd party firewall program. In Administrative Tools---Services it shows Windows Firewall status as Started. But, in Security Center it shows my 3rd party firewall being On but Windows Firewall being off. Also, in Administrative Tools---Windows Firewall with Advanced Security is showing Windows Firewall being on in Domain Profile. Is this normal? Why would one show Windows Firewall as On and another show it as Off?

I have Vista 32 Home Premium and its an Laptop. And Im using Nod32 as Antivirus protection, but I thought that I maybe should buy a firewall also? Cuz Im using Windows Firewall, (the one in Control panel) but I dont really know if it is really enough, cuz Im using a router with out wires. Ps: On my other computer I tried Outpost once, and it totally screwed my internet, we had to buy some hardware thing into the computer and pay a guy to do that, so maybe not Outpost

I check my firewall options, the firewall is 'off' and in red. I continue to turn it back on, but when I check it again later; it is off again. Could this be a virus, something serious? or is it a setting that I need to change?

I'm really at the end of my tether with this issue - have a laptop which has windows Vista installed. Whenever I boot up the Windows Firewall is turned on. However, towards the end of the boot process, the Windows Firewall turns itself off, almost as if when a program loads it knocks it out. Is there anyway I can do a walk thru' of the boot up process so I can see if I can capture which program or process is doing it? At my wits end.

I have a Acer notebook. It had Norton security already installed. I removed this recently and put a AVG anti virus on. This seems to be fine. What I am finding is that when I turn on the computer the Firewall is off. I then reset it to on but again it is off on start up. This did not happen when Norton was installed.

I need a firewall & AV protection, I'm kinda settled on getting: COMODO Firewall and AVAST. 'm looking at Comodo Internet Security v3.3 only the firewall part and then the free Avast whic has caught everything for me in the past but on XP; now I'm using vista ultimate 32bit. I wanted to run it by here first to see if anyone has good/bad experience with the two programs running together.

How is Vista firewall compared to the freebie standards like AVG and Avast? I have Avast running on my Home Premium 32 version, but the built-in one is running too, which can create conflicts.

I'm looking to Share a folder on my Vista Ultimate machine. I want this folder to be accessible via the WAN. Simply put, is this possible? I have not found information going either way right now.
Firewall is using Windows One Care
What I've tried:
-Enabling File Sharing.
-Enabling Public File Sharing.
-Enabled Firewall exception for File Sharing.....
I don't want to do this via VPN connection Basically I've tried all I know. So I'm assuming this can't be done, security reasons for this?Probably. I can't even telnet into the above ports to see if it will accept the connection. RDP with port forwarding works fine as does Web Access. Reason? I do programming at both Home and Work, but would like a centralized location of where the projects are stored. If I could get to my Home PCs Shared Folder using the UNC path, that would be great.

I installed ZoneAlarm Firewall and after that my PC stopped responding. I`m using my PC in safe mode. And when I turn it on on normal mode, my PC loads and then it stops responding. I can`t use System Restore because System Protection is turned off.

I'm running Vista Home Premium SP2, 2 GB RAM, SAS, MBAM, CA (California Associates) AV (e-mail scanning disabled); Avira AV/Update scheduler, CCleaner, and Windows Firewall, WLM on an Acer Aspire Desktop machine.
The system is running just great, however, I've always wondered why I need both the CA and the Windows firewall running at the same time. In CA I can create a list of website that are allowed thru the firewall, but I'm not sure if I can do that with Windows firewall.
Is it OK to disable the CA firewall permanently? Is there a way to specify
what is allowed thru the Windows firewall. And lastly, should I just uninstall the whole CA suite altogether?

i'd like to know details about the vista firewall. Does it now indeed block incoming and outgoing? i assume microsoft didnot create the firewall for nothing. So is it really neccesary to install another one, and if so, do i then need to turn off the windows firewall? and if i need another one, which one?

Can anyone help me with uninstalling Comodo completely? I have uninstalled using windows and everything seemed ok. However, using Security Center, Comodo is still showing as installed. Have tried using Revo Uninstaller and also a registry cleaned. Have also tried Scans with Spybot and Adware but it still sits there in an 'on' state. I have tried to reinstall Comodo but get the message that 'Comodo is already installed and would I like to uninstall now'.When I click ok to uninstall the box disappears but nothing else happens. So it appears that I am stuck with this firewall but there is no way to access it as the only reference to it is via Security Center. The next step is throwing the window......can someone please assist in this. Not too technically minded so worried about any remedies involving regedit or cmd !

I am running Windows Live OneCare and the firewall is enabled. The Vista Firewall services are set to automatic, however on bootup the Vista Firewall is turned off. Shouldn't be a problem but whenever the Vista Firewall is disabled I am getting unwanted traiffic on my laptop which the Live OneCare isn't blocking.

I get a security alert saying my antivirus software may not
be installed. Then, later I get a popup from Norton saying Windows Firewall
has been turned on. Do u want to use Norton Internet Security instead of
Windows Firewall? My Windows Firewall had always been turned on. This started
the other day after I did salvagerepository to fix something else. Does
Windows Vista recognize Norton? How do I stop these from popping up? Also, my
free subscription to norton ends in a week?

I downloaded and used it. The firewall for Vista was turned off because of it, but it also warned that there is no firewall, even though I have Privatefirewall installed. It should state PrivateFirewall is installed or there is another firewall installed rather than stating there is no firewall or it is not turned on. Should it be ignored or fixed?
