Default Windows 8 Firewall - How Good Is It?

Just go for the Typical (Medium). The High will be a pain in the butt.
Make sure you have your personal firewall (meaning the one on your own
computer) active as well.

The idea here is to set up several fences. Don't rely on a single
fence for all your protection. It is easy for the bad guys to find
ways over a single fence, but multiples give them a bad time.

Another good fence is to not use Internet Explorer or anything that uses
it for its rendering engine (Outlook, etc.)


Even IE10???

Thanks.
