Firewall question

Does anyone have any opinions regarding WinXP vs ZoneAlarm? Just curious as to why you would have a particular opinion.

WinXP is an operating system. Granted it has a "built-in" firewall, but ZoneAlarm is dedicated firewall software. To me, there's no comparison so the "vs" just doesn't fit. For firewall protection, get a firewall, e.g. ZoneAlarm, for use with any operating system, be it WinXp, Win2K, etc.

Thanks PAW,

I kind of figured that, I just got a new laptop with XP(I've never used XP before) so I wasn't sure how good the firewall was.
