Hey CEans!
I'm maintaining an old compaq laptop of mine by trying to use lean applications on the computer. I've recently upgraded its hard disk (from 20gb to 120gb), but the memory ram (at 384mb) is the same as the modules still relatively expensive.
Can anyone suggest a good lightweight firewall for windows? I'm using Comodo firewall for the family computer, which is pretty kick a** (despite the warning prompts that keep on annoying my family members, haha). But its a little too CPU intensive for my laptop, cause I tend to run quite a number of engineering applications in parallel. At times I had to disable it completely.
I know, perhaps I should have installed Linux and stuff, but Im really not bothered to deal with the compatibility issues with the engineering software yet
But since I still have the OEM license from the initial laptop purchase, might as well keep on using XP. I think its is still a pretty good workhorse.
So CEans, any worthy recommendations?
Thanks in advanced!
