Firewalls

Today we looked at 2 types of firewall. We looked at Comodo Firewall and Windows own firewall. I have a bit more understanding in the operation of a firewall and will when time allows have a go at a project I thought of. Opening and closing ports are also a good thing to know about if you wish to download something at a much faster pace. By opening and closing ports we can allow faster access or we can restrict access. We also found out that if we create a Virtual PC in our main one, we can run various different types of programmes without interfering with our main PC. (Does that make sense?). I will have a try at creating a Virtual PC when I get the time and see what else I can do.
