WEbroot On and working.
Windows firewall On and working.
Can this conditiion produce drops and pick-ups?
Slower access rates?
Will turning Windows Off produce more threats to the computer?

Hello WILLIAM-PC,
Welcome to the Community Forum,
Windows Firewall protects against inbound traffic, while WSA protects against unknown outbound traffic. WSA is designed to be used WITH Windows Firewall.
The SecureAnywhere firewall monitors data traffic traveling out of your computer ports. It looks for untrusted processes that try to connect to the Internet and steal your personal information. It works with the Windows firewall, which monitors data traffic coming into your computer. With both the SecureAnywhere and Windows firewall turned on, your data has complete inbound and outbound protection.
You should not turn off either the Windows firewall or the SecureAnywhere firewall. If they are disabled, your system is open to many types of threats whenever you connect to the Internet or to a network. These firewalls can block malware, hacking attempts, and other online threats before they can cause damage to your system or compromise your security.
The SecureAnywhere firewall is preconfigured to filter traffic on your computer. It works in the background without disrupting your normal activities. If the firewall detects any unrecognized traffic, it opens an alert where you can block the traffic or allow it to proceed.

One more thing I do not notice any slow downs in any of my 5 PCs running both Firewalls!;)
Hope this helps and if not please get back to us.
Kind Regards,

Hi Sherry:D
What an awesome explanation - a big kudo for you! ;)
From my own experience I can also add that it's precisely what distinguishes the WSA from the competition - apart from a high level of protection and security surveillance complex - Webroot is the lightest solution which protects users in the real-time :D
No slowdowns, no unnecessary actions or additives - mega fast, mega light and mega effectively!
This is what all rest of the competitors can only envy ;)

Mike
