Firestarter & routers (SOLVED)

Postby Page » Sat Jan 22, 2011 5:38 pm

Hello all, first off, I'm really enjoying Ultimate Edition. 2nd, please excuse my Noob-ness. If I'm on-line through a router is it really necessary to use Firestarter for protection. I thought the router acted as a fire wall? thanx for the help

Welcome to the forum Page ! <BREW> The way I see it is....... can you ever be TOO safe ? I run my rigs via a router and still run firestarter to ! I haven't had any issues so far, about 3 years and counting ! Better safe than sorry ! ;)
