Windows firewall on ?

Welcome greanman52 to Webroot forum to answer your question.
 
The Webroot SecureAnywhere firewall and software is compatible with any other antivirus or firewall application, so you should have no problem running our software alongside your other antivirus/firewall. While it is possible for another antivirus or firewall application to interfere with WSA, no part of Webroot should interfere with other firewalls as WSA is built to recognize and co-exist with other legitimate antivirus/firewall applications. Running the Windows firewall alongside our program is recommended and sufficient because the Windows firewall is effective against hostile inbound connections, whereas SecureAnywhere provides effective outbound protection.
 
 
Hope this helps and again welcome to the forum

Hi greanman52
 
Welcome to the Community  Forums.
 
Absolutely...when running WSA one MUST either keep the Windows Firewall or replace it with a 3rd party firewall.  WSA has its own firewall component for the control of outbound connections but leaves the inbound connection side to the Windows Firewall (or the 3rd party firewall installed instead).
 
Please see this KB Article on the subject that will give you all the informaiton you need and the reasons why.
 
Please also feel free to ask any follow up questions you may have on this or any other WSA-related subject.
