Dont have any conflicts as far as I know. My understanding is that the Windows XP Internet Connection Firewall isn't a true firewall but more of a packet filter. I have the McAfee firewall as a "true" firewall. I haven't tried connecting to my PC with a
nother through telnet 9although that's the exact thing I want prevent other people from doing). The network security on my work computer won't let me access telnet to try the connection to the home PC. I don't know how to use telnet anyhow. I just want
to close the port it uses.
