Hi:

 

I am currently using the norton 360 firewall, but I was trying to free up some memory, so I ran the services.msc program.  I noticed that the windows firewall is still an active running process.  Can I disable the windows firewall service, or is 360 integrated with it to the point where it would leave my laptop open to attacks?

That's sort of what I thought, but I appreciate the quick verification of my suspicions. :)

 

Have a good one.
