how can i tell if my firewall is on?

Hello and Welcome to the Community Forum,

 

 

To information concerningWindows Firewall for Windows 7 please look here and for Windows 8 go here .

 

The Windows Firewall for Win7 & Win 8 is very robust especially in terms of handling the Inbound so WSA allows it to handle the inbound security whilst it covers the outbound transactions. The WSA firewall effectively replaces the Windows Firewall outbound.

 

Please see this Knowledge Base Article for more information. AND look here in managing Webroots Firewall

 

 

 

Hope this helps, and if you need more help then please ask

 

Best Regards,
