Does anyone know of a workaround for the extremely slow connections to
shared drives on workgroup drives. I have had to turn off the firewall and
tell the firewall I have my own and will monitor it myself for every pc in
the workgroup. I would like to have the firewall on but it is way to slow
to use.

Thanks

Russ

DON'T use it. Turn it off...and get Kerio.

Nice firewall...and free.

Just make sure you install it in the simple mode.

Good luck.


Have a nice one...
