BTW, with sp2 rc2 2149, I have stopped using Sygate/Zone alarm, and insted turned to the XP firewall, with NO PROBLEMS, and NO SECURITY Issues..One less program running in the background= more available resources for everything else!
I use Drive Image, which works fine but awful damn slow when restoring an image (creating is quick enough). I tried Acronis, but couldn't get it to work.
As for the quote, is it a general consensus that WINXP SP2's firewall is sufficient by itself? I"m using it with Outpost Pro, and I'd gladly ditch Outpost if WINXP works well enough on its own.
